In addition, she provides supervision/mentoring for individuals pursuing AASP CMPC© and is the Mental Performance Coach for Canada’s Women’s National Softball Team.
“I am elated and honored to being working with the G2 Academy and young female golfers. I can’t wait to share my knowledge, empower these young women through mental game and leadership training, and watch them grow and develop on and off the course. The G2 Academy stands out and grabbed my attention; we’ve moved the needle on women’s equality in sport, but are still having to work to level the playing field and provide access and resources for women to get involved and excel. By focusing solely on girls, G2 takes your traditional sports academy and creates a safe and optimal environment for junior female golfers, and adds in much needed components of Leadership and Empowerment. Young women need supportive programs like this as they navigate their sport experiences and lives” states Tashman.
