This will be the 7th yeah that Kelsey Doucette has been a coach as part of the Lasers swim team. She started coaching at the age of fourteen, but has been swimming with the Lasers since she was ten. Kelsey finished her competitive swimming two years ago, but her love of the sport and the Lasers has led her to continue being a part of the team as a coach. Outside of swimming, Kelsey is a second year nursing student here in Saskatoon.
