Sean Sylvestre’s playing career starting like that of most goalkeepers….. being the only person willing to stand in the goal with limited padding while other players hammered soccer balls at you. During his playing career, Sean was fortunate enough to capture a national bronze medal in 1998 as a member of the Kilcona Impact followed by a national gold medal in 2002 as a member of the Sons of Italy Lions Soccer Club.
In 2003, Sean began his coaching career in the youth ranks of the Bonivital Soccer Club where he was often referred to as a “Fitness Nazi” by his players and was fortunate enough to capture a national silver medal in 2006 with a female youth squad from Bonivital. In 2008, Sean began coaching alongside Laurence, where he learned that soccer was about more than just fitness. Since coaching together the two have captured a national bronze medal in 2008 with a male youth squad from Bonivital in addition to leading Winnipeg Juventus FC to the club’s first provincial championship and nationals appearance in 2011.
