PFC is proud to welcome Rich Hirst! 

Joining the Technical Department as our new Manager, High Performance. This role completes the full complement of technical leadership across PFC's three program pillars (Community ~ Mack Cobel, Grassroots/Competitive ~ Hollie Babut & High Performance ~ Rich Hirst) under the direction of DFO, Frankie Mohammend.

With over 34 years of coaching experience, Rich brings a wealth of knowledge and leadership from the high-performance levels of OPDL, League1 Ontario, and Post-Secondary soccer.

With a proven track record in technical leadership roles across the province, PFC’s OPDL and League1 Ontario programs are in great hands under Rich’s oversight! He has been instrumental in helping hundreds of student-athletes reach their collegiate dreams — supporting players as they earned opportunities across Canada and the U.S.

Currently serving as the Head Coach of Women’s Soccer at Centennial College for the past five years, Rich continues to inspire and develop the next generation of players both on and off the field.

Welcome to PFC, Coach Rich! Stay tuned for the PFC October Newsletter for a full bio and introduction!
