Former Hockey Player/CFL Alumni/Pro WWF Wrestler, Glenn Kulka, to Speak on Drug Abuse
ADHS is proud to present Mr. Kulka who will speak to our students and staff about drug abuse on Wednesday, December 7th at 9:30 am in the gym.
Everyone is welcome to attend!
Born in Edmonton, Glenn Kulka began his professional career playing minor hockey in the BC Hockey League in 1980 and Western Hockey League (WHL) for the 1981- 83 seasons. Glenn Kulka then moved on to football to play defensive line for two seasons (1984 and 85) for the Bakersfield College Renegades who play in the PAC 9 JC Conference of California. Glenn played for a number of CFL teams during a career which spanned over a decade (1986 to 1995). He first signed with the Edmonton Eskimos for the 1986 season as an offensive lineman. Glenn played for Montreal, Toronto, Saskatchewan and Ottawa during his CFL career.
In 1995, Kulka appeared as part of a Saskatchewan Roughrider fundraiser at a WWF (World Wrestling Federation) match with Brett ‘the Hitman’ Hart which served as a catalyst for Glenn to take up the sport. He began to train with Hart and Leo Burke in Calgary and in 1997 Glenn began touring the development circuit with Grand Prix Wrestling. Kulka later signed a development contact in late 1997 with the WWF until his retirement from professional wrestling in 1999.
Glenn has recently received training in recognizing and dealing with chemical dependencies, effective intervention strategies for youth and young professionals, as well as prevention and intervention programs. With over 30 years of involvement within the professional sport industry having experienced both the high and lows, Kulka now seeks to educate and use his life experiences to provide insight about recognizing, and dealing with, the signs of someone who is unable to resist or oppose debilitating circumstances.
