Brian Priddin (aka, "Coach"): Our head coach, Brian has spent a lifetime pursuing physical fitness through a variety of sports. Coach Brian has run competitively since junior high school, is an expert mountain bike racer, has taken up road racing and has competed in over 30 triathlons of various lengths. Additionally, he has coached a number of athletes in their triathlon, running, and cycling endeavors. He holds coaching certifications from USA Cycling (Expert Coach), USA Swimming (Level 2), USA Track and Field (Level 1) and  USA Triathlon (Level 1). Coach Brian also is CPR & First Aid certified.

Brian experienced a "mountain top" moment in the summer of 2003 in which he was called to serve God and is currently in the discernment process for the ministry. As part of his calling Brian felt compelled to create Team in Faith to spread the 'good news' and inspire other athletes to develop themselves completely as people, not just athletes. Brian also strives to make athletes aware of the rewards of thanking God for their their athletic abilities and passions. As Coach Priddin says, "Come to the water, you won't be denied!". Also, in the summer of 2003, Brian spent 1 month in Jerusalem studying the holy land and the bible at St. George's College.

Coach Priddin has a passion for teaching and spent a number of years working part-time as a college professor. He holds a Master of Business Administration degree, and is more than willing to share his life changing moments with you. He continues to work a full-time job in the secular world and is not compensated for any of his work with Team in Faith.

He also stands firm in his beliefs and all coaches, athletes and volunteers must agree to the Team in Faith code of conduct.
