Jeremy, born and raised in Regina, Saskatchewan, is ranked third in Canada, behind a top 8 Olympian and the 8th best jumper all time. He is dedicated to improving in his sport and life. His spare time is spent learning (especially about nutrition, recovery and performance), running a massage practice to support his athletic career, and starting a website business. Jeremy has the opportunity to train with the best coaches and athletes in the world. He has been accepted to the World Athletic Center in Phoenix, Arizona. With his donors’ support, the center creates the best environment for Jeremy to train and prepare for the Olympic Games. The center is equipped with a network of doctors, scientists, cutting-edge sports technologies and state-of-the-art facilities that promote high performance. Who else is there?

  • Dan Pfaff: Recruited to be the head coach of the British Olympic team from 2010-2012, has coached 49 athletes to the Olympics, including most recently the 2012 Olympic long jump champion (9 medalists total)
  • Steve Lewis: British pole vault record holder, 5th at the 2012 Olympics
  • Christabelle Nettey: Canadian long jump record holder
  • Sanghyuk Woo: Two-time high jump world championship medalist
  • Brad Walker: USA pole vault record holder, two-time world champion, 6th best vaulter ever
  • Aries Merritt: World record holder, Olympic and world champion
 In order to realize his Olympic goals, Jeremy needs to spend as much time as he can at the center. Having spent 8 months there already, Jeremy and his coach both understand that the best opportunity is in Phoenix. Financials are the only thing holding him back. Donations are already boosting Jeremy’s chances, as well as hard work this summer in preparations for it. Please look to the Donations page if you are interested in assisting Jeremy to the Olympics
