Niagara College is celebrating Knights men’s soccer head coach and professor Frank DeChellis, who has been named the recipient of Ontario Soccer’s 2026 Coaches Development Award.<\/p>\n

Presented as part of Ontario Soccer’s annual Centre Circle Awards, the honour recognizes individuals who have made significant contributions to coaching development across the province through education, mentorship and a commitment to player development.<\/p>\n

DeChellis, who has served as head coach of the Knights men’s soccer team since 2012, is also a Professor and Program Coordinator in NC’s School of Technology.<\/p>\n

A Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) A-License Coach and Chartered Professional Coach, DeChellis has dedicated nearly four decades to developing players and coaches throughout Niagara and Ontario.<\/p>\n

Beyond his roles at NC, he serves as Coach Development Coordinator with the Welland Soccer Club and delivers coach education for Canada Soccer. He has also contributed to coaching development through Ontario Soccer, the Niagara Regional Soccer Program and major sporting initiatives, including the 2022 Canada Summer Games.<\/p>\n

“Coach Education has been a nice addition to my soccer journey because I am passionate about soccer, coaching and teaching, and this checks all the boxes,” said DeChellis. “My work at the Welland soccer club is enjoyable because it allows me to fill in that gap between formal coach education and the realities of running a team and putting your soccer knowledge into teachable chunks.”<\/p>\n

DeChellis also credits the support of NC’s Athletics department for helping him grow as a leader in the soccer community.<\/p>\n

“Michele O’Keefe, Senior Director of Athletics & Student Engagement at NC, encourages and supports varsity coaches to be technical leaders in our respective sports communities,” he said. “Her contacts, ideas and advice have helped me grow in that space. A nice full-circle moment is when former players are in my coaching courses.”<\/p>\n

DeChellis and the Knights men’s soccer team will wrap up their regular season this Sunday, October 18, against Humber College, before heading into the playoffs on Wednesday, October 21.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Prof Adam Weaver explores unbuilt history of Niagara Falls"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>When tourists flock to the “Honeymoon Capital of the World,” their attention is typically focused on its iconic waterfalls, towering hotels and \u00a0bustling entertainment districts – but \u00a0for NC Tourism Professor Dr. Adam Weaver, some of the most fascinating aspects of his hometown lie in what cannot be seen.<\/p>\n<p>Weaver shines a spotlight on the “never built” history of Niagara Falls in an academic article to be featured in <em>Tourism Recreation Researc<\/em>h.<\/p>\n<p>In “Presence, absence, and constative alignment: unbuilt visitor attractions in Niagara Falls, Ontario,” he highlights proposed visitor attractions that did not materialize.<\/p>\n<p>“Unbuilt attractions represent paths not taken. In recent years, I have tried to shift my writing to Niagara-based tourism in hospitality topics,” said Weaver, who has authored 35 academic articles and 12 book chapters. “Tourism and hospitality in the Niagara region has received scholarly attention but the volume of work that is out there in academic articles and edited books is relatively small compared to the significance and reputation of Niagara.”<\/p>\n<p>One example Weaver has pointed out is Maharishi Veda Land – an expansive, fully climate controlled theme park once proposed for the Lyons Creek area. Championed by well-known Canadian magician Doug Henning, the park’s business plan featured an elaborate conveyor system, and ride designs that, according to Weaver, “probably still defy modern engineering.”<\/p>\n<p>Another unrealized project, Weaver noted, was a proposed Titanic-themed museum. In his research, Weaver used a conceptual drawing of the museum provided by St. Catharines-based designer Lex Parker while leaning on the expertise of Kaitlin Laslo – a local history librarian at the Niagara Falls Public Library.<\/p>\n<p>Projects like these ultimately failed for a variety of reasons – like a business plan that became unviable due to economic or political shifts, or a failure to secure suitable land. In the case of Maharishi Veda Land, Weaver noted, the proposal’s fantasy elements were simply not grounded in practical development reality.<\/p>\n<p>Weaver said that successful tourism development relies on “constitutive alignment” – that various circumstances and variables must come together for an attraction to actually be built.<\/p>\n<p>Weaver’s exploration of the unbuilt landscape directly informs his teaching at NC. During field trips to Niagara Falls and Niagara-on-the-Lake, Weaver frequently points out what is missing just as much as what is present – drawing attention to sites like the perpetually incomplete hotel parking garage at the intersection of Stanley Avenue and Dunn Street.<\/p>\n<p>“Students are often familiar with visitor attractions hotels and transportation infrastructure that have been built. Students are curious to hear about what could have been and what never came to pass,” he said. “They naturally then ask, ‘well what happened? Why was a certain attraction never built?’<\/p>\n<p>“Talking about places never build draws students into the conversation and gets them interested in talking about tourism destinations more broadly.”<\/p>\n<p>Weaver’s latest article pairs well with another he recently published about the promotion of the Niagara region to geo-tourists – a path the region is actively taking in contrast to the abandoned paths of unbuilt theme parks.<\/p>\n<p>As a resident of the North End of Niagara Falls, Weaver noted that his scholarly appreciation for unbuilt attractions only goes so far when it comes to his own daily life.<\/p>\n<p>“Similar to many folks.

The installation is located in a field just west of The Hare Wine Co. on the eastern side of Niagara Stone Road.<\/p>\n<p>Led by neuroscientist, psychologist and artist Ron Clavier, the project is designed to honour the diverse cultural communities that have shaped Niagara’s agricultural landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Artwork for the project was created by indigenous artists Raymond Skye of the Tuscarora Nation, and Shayde Sandy of the Cayuga Nation, portraying the Haudenosaunee legend of corn, beans, and squash traditionally grown together. The figures depict indigenous women working the land in pre-colonial clothing, with the tallest structure to rise 16 feet from the ground.<\/p>\n<p>To bring the large structures to life, Professor Craig Brown condensed two weeks of labs into a six-hour build day on site. Students split into three groups to tackle the non-standard framing needed for each structure. They installed large six-by-six posts and custom diagonal wind braces to support the unique shapes of the extending artwork panels.<\/p>\n<p>“This gives students \u00a0an opportunity to actually spend some real time in the field working on a community project … with the responsibility to install something in its entirety, correctly,” said Brown.<\/p>\n<p>Brown noted that the custom nature of the artwork provided a departure from standard 16-inch on-center framing, giving students a unique large scale structural challenge.<\/p>\n<p>Professor and Lab Instructor Nick Fraraccio – who led the College team on the ground, alongside volunteer Professors Karleigh Roberts and Lucas Brancalion – highlighted the practical skills the students honed during the build.<\/p>\n<p>“With the guidance of all instructors and professors involved, the students were able to assemble the project by reading the blueprint and cut list,” said Fraraccio. “It’s reinforced their skills of measuring accurately, cutting accurately, and most importantly, installing the pieces as per blueprint, accurately and professionally.”<\/p>\n<p>Fraraccio noted that the cohort worked exceptionally well together, remaining fully engaged and insisting one another to successfully complete the framing as a team.<\/p>\n<p>Participating students embraced the opportunity to gain experience in the field on a real-world community project.<\/p>\n<p>Kena Oruchalu, a second-year student who followed his passion for carpentry to NC all the way from Nigeria, valued the chance to get out into the community and found immense satisfaction in building something permanent.<\/p>\n<p>“I enjoy the experience of working outside, and it’s preparing me for when I finally get a job after completing school,” he said. “I’ve been craving a moment like this, where we get to come to the site, build it, and see a structure that we’re not going to take down.”<\/p>\n<p>“It’s a totally different experience than being in the classroom,” said Boyi Ma, an international student from China. “Here, students actually use what we learn in class on an actual job site. I’m learning a lot of skills in a practical way.”<\/p>\n<p>For Clavier, the College’s involvement provided crucial structural support while offering students an intercultural and inter-generational professional experience.<\/p>\n<p>“I and my team have been thoroughly delighted with NC’s appreciation of the project’s potential and its almost immediate offer to help in as many ways as possible,” said Clavier. “The most significant help to our project is NC’s offer to provide professional grade work experience to its students.”<\/p>\n<p>The Carpentry students are scheduled to return to the site in early November to mount the final printed murals onto the newly completed structures.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin:
