ABOUT US

Founded in 2003

OUR FOCUS IS ON FUN!

Bob Acton Sports, formerly known as “Hockey and Homework” and “Beaches Sports Academy” was founded in 2003 by Bob Acton. What started as a simple after school program involving one hour of hockey and one hour of homework, has now developed into a staple for hockey and lacrosse development in the Beaches Community.

Our goal at Bob Acton Sports is to develop talented hockey players, but also happy and confidents ones. It is important to note that we’re not here to trying to develop strictly elite hockey players, we are trying to develop any boy or girl to play hockey for the rest of their life.

We develop kids and the ones that really want to chase the dream, we make sure that we’re moving forward and providing the mentorship for them… it goes way beyond the hockey.

Parents need advice for where their kids want to go, whether its possible school opportunities, scholastic opportunities, junior programs… and we have a plethora of experience within this field.

We don’t want to look at this as a hockey program as we do a lot of dryland programs, lacrosse programs, ball hockey programs… we simply want to be a place in the area where parents trust us and develop some really good life skills”.

Meet Reid …

Our owner, Reid Acton, believes in a diversified approach to youth athletics.

As a child, Reid competed at the Provincial level in taekwondo and gymnastics before gravitating to hockey at the age of 9 and lacrosse at 13. He also played soccer for Clair-Lee, Football for the Scarborough Thunder and baseball for East York.

Reid played his youth hockey for the Wexford Raiders and the Toronto Young Nationals AAA. In 2005, he was drafted to the Windsor Spitfires of the OHL.

Instead of playing junior hockey, Reid elected to attend Westminster prep school in Connecticut, where he played hockey and lacrosse.

Upon graduation, while choosing between hockey and lacrosse — Reid accepted a lacrosse scholarship to #1 ranked Division I, Loyola University Maryland, where he would later become captain of the team, win a national championship and be named a two-time All American.

From there, Reid went on to play professional lacrosse in the National Lacrosse League and the Major Lacrosse League. Reid is also the owner of BEAST Athletics and Bob Acton Sports and is head coach of the Don Mills Flyers 2010 hockey team.

“A lot of sport organizations are forcing kids to specialize way too young and children are missing out on playing a lot of other sports. Not only did the other sports I played help me later in my sports career, but I met friends that I still keep in touch with today. The goal of Toronto Multi-Sport is to get kids doing something different in a positive, inclusive atmosphere where we put the focus on fun.”
