Matt Chapdelaine, a 2010 draft pick of the B.C. Lions, was the guest speaker at 91原创 Fundamental鈥檚 annual athletic banquet last week (June 5).
Chapdelaine, who now runs MPWR Coaching 鈥� a coaching and training company for high performance athletes 鈥� told the students that it wasn鈥檛 until he started thinking about how he could give rather than take that his life rewards started to pour in. He challenged the students to think about what they could do to invest in the lives of their friends and to give back to their school and community.
