Garry Girdler, 1953-2013

The Cheetah family is greatly saddened by the recent passing of our long term throws coach Garry Girdler.

Garry was an inspirational coach who provided the starting point for many of British Columbia's finest throwers. His skilled coaching and positive attitude will continue to be the standard strived for by all current and future Cheetah coaches. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Girdler family during these difficult times.

Garry's obituary can be found here.
