Welcome to the Team: Meet Our New Strength & Conditioning Coach, Ryley Price
We’re excited to welcome a new face to the Okanagan Hockey Academy team — Ryley Price, our new Strength & Conditioning Coach.
Ryley brings a wealth of experience in developing elite-level hockey players, having worked in high-performance training environments since 2019. With a background as a multi-sport athlete, Ryley knows firsthand how strength training can transform an athlete’s performance — not just on the ice, but in every aspect of their game. That experience sparked a passion that led him to earn a Bachelor of Human Kinetics and a Master’s degree in Health and Exercise Science from the University of British Columbia.
Ryley is committed to helping athletes become the best version of themselves. His coaching philosophy centers on continuous growth: there’s always room to improve, another level to reach, and more work to be done. He’s here to instill that same mindset in our athletes — that success doesn’t come easy, but with hard work and the right support, it’s always within reach.
When Ryley’s not in the gym, you’ll find him teeing off on the golf course or exploring the wilderness with his three dogs.
Please join us in giving Ryley a warm welcome to the OHA family! We’re thrilled to have him on board and can’t wait to see the impact he’ll make both on and off the ice.
