Callum McLeod leaves Scottish Hockey
After ten years Callum McLeod, Scottish Hockey’s Performance Manager, will have his last day with the organisation on Friday 24th of June. Callum has worked with Scottish Hockey for over a decade, as Performance Manager.
During his time at Scottish Hockey, Callum has successfully obtained the funding required for the Scotland women’s national team to train full time leading up to major events. Recently he successfully project-managed the Champions Challenge and Men’s 4 nations events in 2014 – the first time Scotland hosted a world-level event for over a decade. In addition to this he has successfully bid to bring European and World level events to the Glasgow National Hockey Centre.
He devised and implemented wide ranging changes to the performance programmes of Scottish Hockey including the introduction of weekly contact time for all national age group players, in addition to significantly increasing the contact time of all the national teams. Callum’s remit went beyond the national teams, he has consistently led the charge to raise the standard of the National League and worked to develop the level of competitiveness of youth competitions.
David Sweetman, Scottish Hockey CEO Commented: “Callum has been a hard-working, committed and enthusiastic member of our team. From my experience as a volunteer and latterly working for Scottish Hockey, Callum’s passion for the sport has always been evident. I know that he will remain actively involved in the sport, and we all wish him the best for the future.”
