On The Pegs VOL. 5 ISSUE 2 - FEBRUARY 2020 31 Christy Williams-Richards Named Team Manager for FactoryONE Mototrials FactoryONE Mototrials has announced Christy Williams-Richards as the Sherco team’s new Team Manager. Christy will be managing the team riders and the day- to-day operations of the team. Looking forward to managing the FactoryONE rigs and helping organize the rid- ers at the events is only one part of what Christy hopes to bring to the team. “I am excited to work with both established riders on the National scene and especially the up and coming riders. I feel that I will be in a position to help work with the riders on their trials skills, physical training, and overall training schedules to help them achieve their full potential. Trials has always been a bit of a “backyard” sport compared to main-stream sports, and it’s time for trials riders to have the opportu- nity to bring their A-game and ele-vate trials to the next level.” Christy will be developing and implementing strategies to continue the growth of the team’s suc-cess, individual riders’ success as well as the growth of the sport of observed trials in the United States. In addition, she will determine and admin- ister team budgets, identify and track key perfor-mance indicators and manage all team communications. n
