Hallie Clarke

Hallie Clarke is not only one of the most talented prospects in head first sliding, she is also the first athlete to hold both the senior and junior World Championship titles at the same time. Hallie became the youngest athlete ever to win the senior World Championships when she slid to the top of the podium in 2024. She won the junior World Championship crown in January 2025.

Hallie first broke onto the international skeleton circuit at 17 years old  when she finished second overall on the Intercontinental Cup circuit. In 2023 she competed for the United States, her home for 13 years. In her inaugural World Cup season, she earned two silver medals and a top-10 finish at the World Championships as the youngest athlete on tour. To top off her season, she became the U20 Junior World Champion.

With the positive changes occurring in the Canadian skeleton program, Hallie decided to make a return north of the border and slide with the maple leaf on her back for the 2023-24 campaign. It was the appointment of Joe Cecchini as head coach that made the decision easy for Hallie. Joe has been her coach since she was introduced to the sport at just 14 years of age.

Hallie excelled as a multi-sport athlete before skeleton. She comes by her athletic talent honestly as both of her parents were talented athletes. Her mom was a highly competitive figure skater in Canada that has since become a predominant power skating instructor. Her dad was a NCAA hockey player and a Toronto Maple Leaf draft pick.

Hallie graduated from Bowness High School in 2021. She is now completing her Bachelors of Health Science degree online at Queen’s University. Outside of skeleton, Hallie enjoys music and being outdoors. She plays a few different instruments, but she mostly plays ukulele. She finds it to be a great stress relief.
