Melissa Fraley 
Girl's Xcel  Team Coach 

Melissa is a welcomed addition to the Impact Team family.  She recently graduated with a masters degree in education.  In September 2019, she took her first job as a school counselor in the Franklin NH School District.  Despite her full-time work there, she decided that her passion for gymnastics and coaching was too much to keep her away from the sport.

Lucky for us, she is one of our Girl's team coaches at Impact.  Prior to coaching at Impact, Melissa coached a Junior Olympic Girl's Team, where she excelled as a compulsory coach... teaching beautiful lines and sound technique- all in an atmosphere of fun!  Melissa loves going to meets to "see the girls' hard work pay off."   
One of her best skills as a coach is that she works hard (and is successful) at building strong connections with each of the girls that she coaches.  For fun, she loves spending time with her dog, Ace! ​

Sydney Spenard 
Girl's Xcel Team Coach 

Sydney has been involved in the sport of gymnastics since she was 4 years old. Sydney was a level 8 gymnast when she decided that she wanted to start coaching. She has been coaching gymnastics for about 5 years and couldn’t be happier.  She said, “I look forward to coaching every day; it’s a family here at Impact.  I truly love the sport and knew I couldn’t be away from it.  I love the kids and seeing them happy and growing as gymnasts.”

​Sydney is currently studying health sciences and psychology at Rivier College as well as a member of the field hockey team there.  She said, "People ask me why would I want to drive so far to work when  I'm at school and I always tell them because this is what I love to do.  I tell them that I love to see the kids every class and help them achieve their goals."
