The Canton High School Athletic Department is thrilled to announce the appointment of Jesse Mitchell as our Girls Varsity Basketball coach.
| Coach Jesse Mitchell during in time at Newfound Regional |
Coach Mitchell arrives at Canton High with an impressive coaching resume. His experiences include stops at Newfound Regional High School in Bristol, New Hampshire where he coached the Boys Varsity Basketball team as well as the Boys Varsity Soccer team. He won the 2022 Coach of the year honor for the entire state of New Hampshire.
After moving to Weymouth, MA, he wasted no time in expanding his coaching career. Last year he served as the Head Freshmen Boys Basketball coach at Archbishop Williams. He also served as assistant Boys Soccer coach for the Bishops. Last winter also saw him coach the top 8th grade girls team for the Behn Hurricanes.
His "day job" is Regional Director of New England for a national youth programing camp company called State and Kate's Camp, where he serves in the roles as camp director, special education teacher and coach.
Coach Mitchell had this to say upon his appointment-
"I am super excited to bring some enthusiasm and energy to the team and the program for years to come. Basketball is a huge passion of mine and being a mentor to youth in the community is just as important. Can't wait to learn more about Canton and it's community. So ready to get back on the court and bring even more success to the Girls Program!"
We in Bulldog Nation welcome coach Mitchell and wish him great success with the Green and White!
Hello Bulldog Nation-
As our student athletes head into summer, we want to clarify for parents and student athletes, the nature of activities taking place in the summer months.
The simply way to start is that there are NO MANDATORY or OFFICIAL CHS Athletic activities during the summer months until we officially start the fall seasons in mid/late August.
Captains' Practices- These are not school sponsored/monitored activities. Captains' practices are not within the rules of the MIAA (Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association). We understand and encourage our kids to get together to train in their off-seasons, but not as official captains. Parents/Guardians should be aware that there is no adult supervision at these get togethers.
Other summer opportunities- This incudes camps, leagues, clinics, etc. These are all OPTIONAL and are in no way associated with CHS. There are many great opportunities out there but be aware that they are not school-sponsored and participation is not expected of any CHS student athlete.
(CHS Strength and Conditioning is the only summer activity we officially offer at CHS.)
Now go out there and Pound the Rock! Work hard all summer and get better at your sport/craft! You won't see the improvements daily.....but in 8 weeks....the work will really show.
A message from Coach Mark Erickson-
Hi CHS Athletes,
I am excited to announce the Summer Strength and Conditioning Schedule. This is a great opportunity, especially for those of you who compete in a Fall Sport to improve yourselves as athletes and create as much Strength, Speed, Agility, and Power as possible, so you show up to tryouts and practices in the best shape you have been in to date.
I am also going to be sending out a Cardio Conditioning Program for you to do on your own or with your teammates during the summer. I want your coaches to be able to focus on helping you be better players and competitors of your respective sports. It is my job to make sure you are all the best ATHLETES you can be!
SUMMER STRENGTH & CONDITIONING SCHEDULE STARTING THE WEEK OF JUNE 23RD:
TUESDAYS, WEDNESDAYS, THURSDAYS
6AM - OPEN TO ALL ATHLETES
7AM - FEMALE ATHLETES
8AM - MALE ATHLETES
