Snoop Dogg named ‘honorary coach’ for Team US at Winter Olympics

The Winter Games take place in Milan and Cortina, Italy, from 6-22 February.

USOPC said Snoop Dogg “will lend his signature humour and heart” to help motivate and inspire US athletes, while the organisation’s chief executive officer Sarah Hirshland said the hip-hop star’s “enthusiasm for the Olympic and Paralympic movement is contagious”.

Snoop Dogg added: “This team represents the best of what sport can be: talent, heart and hustle. If I can bring a little more love and motivation to that, that’s a win for me.”

Snoop, whose real name is Calvin Broadus Jr, is a big sports fan who in 2005 founded the Snoop Youth Football League, which aims to provide inner-city children opportunities to play American football in stadiums around the US.
