Three B.C. Athletes Selected to Attend the U23 Team Canada Selection Camp Tryouts

March 2, 2017

A big congratulations to Ben "Fred" Hagkull, Tanner Jung and Jack Kosterman. They've been invited to try out for Team Canada's U23 Men's Team! Only 18 athletes were selected to attend the selection camp, which will take place at the Toronto Pan Am Sports Centre from March 20-24.

If they're selected, the athletes will have the unique honour of playing in a World Championships on home soil. The team will compete at the 2017 Men's U23 World Wheelchair Basketball Championship in Toronto from June 8-16.

It's an honour to make it this far, and we're so proud of these amazing young men and all they've contributed to our program. A special thank you to the coaches, parents, family and friends who have helped them get this far!
