Jr Challenge 2016

What a fun weekend with athletes from all across the Province! We had athletes from Prince George, Pender Island, Victoria, Kamloops and all across the lower mainland. We also had some Let's Play kids join us in the 8ft hoop division, who all did a great job on Saturday, we saw some awesome skills and plays by these younger athletes all aged 12 and under, youngest being 7 years old!

Thank you to all the coaches who came to support these athletes and to the parents and family members for getting these athletes to Maple Ridge for this jam packed weekend. We had many parents help out with set up and take down and it was much appreciated from the BCWBS team!

We would also like to thank the following supporters:

Panago Pizza for our lunch and prizes for the athletes, Jump Start for the awesome backpacks and water bottles provided to all athletes, to the Province of BC, viaSport and the Rick Hansen Foundation for your continued support and to MLA Marc Dalton for stopping by on Saturday morning to wish all the athletes well.

A big shout out to the leadership students from Samuel Robertson Technical for your support throughout the whole weekend! Thank you for letting us use your wonderful school for this event!
