7月10日，加拿大奥委会(Canadian Olympic Committee)宣布了2015多伦多泛美运动会加拿大队教练名单，总共170人，这是加拿大世上最大的一只队伍。考虑到本次泛美运动会在加拿大本土进行，同时许多项目成为2016年Rio奥运会的资格赛，所以加拿大的优秀运动员可能利用这次机会有突出表现，他们的佳绩可期。
On Friday, the Canadian Olympic Committee announced the full Canadian coach team for the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am Games, featuring 170 coaches – the country’s largest ever coach team fielded in its multi-sport Games history.
The COC recognizes the paramount role that coaches play in the success of our athletes and in doing so, has made coach development the single most important priority investment for performance.
With TORONTO 2015 providing a “home Games” experience, as well as a number of qualification opportunities for the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, these Games will offer a tremendous experience for Canada’s high performance athletes.
