"I'm really looking forward to working with this phenomenally talented group of athletes and help them express their potential in 2020," said Shallcrass. "The squad is a great mix of younger athletes and Olympic veterans."

"We are extremely fortunate to have Matt come on board for the critical last 16 months to the Games.'"said Cycling Canada's Head Track Coach Brendon Cameron.
