After an impressive 26 year-run leading Atlantic University Sport (AUS), president and CEO Phil Currie is stepping down from the organization leaving it with a bright future.
Phil took AUS from a small operation with just one-and-a-half staff positions and a budget in the tens of thousands to a thriving organization with four full-time employees and an annual budget exceeding $1.2 million.

At the conference level, Currie’s impact has been significant in establishing a stable corporate partnership program and improving competitive environments for student-athletes.
AUS serves more than 2,000 student-athletes each year in regular season conference play and annual championship events.
Phil will oversee his final basketball championship from this weekend Feb. 28 to March 2.
A special recognition will take place Saturday, March 1, at Scotiabank Centre during the evening doubleheader.
The search for his replacement will begin after Phil’s last day on April 30th.
