Email: [email protected]
Brady Trombly is a master’s student in the Human Kinetics program at Laurentian University, and is supervised by Dr. Amanda Schweinbenz. Her thesis committee also includes: Dr. Pat Pickard and Dr. Nancy Young.
Brady is originally from Orillia, Ontario but has chosen to settle down in Sudbury. Her master’s thesis research is focused on the promotion of physical activity through physical education. The goal of her project is to determine the reasons why girls are choosing not to participate in physical education classes beyond grade 9. She will recruit female students in grades 10 through 12, from high schools in the Sudbury area. Two types of data will be collected: survey data regarding current activity levels and enrolment status within PE classes; and focus group data from students who have opted-out of physical education.
Brady’s graduate training is supported by an Ontario Graduate Scholarship (OGS).
In addition to her thesis research, Brady has dedicated much of her time to coaching local competitive and high school gymnasts, and working as a Research Assistant with Dr. Nancy Young and Tricia Burke with various research projects.
Brady’s passions and experiences have driven her to further her education and hopefully make an impact on physical education and activity practices within the Sudbury and northern Ontario regions.
