Engage Sport North is excited to invite coaches, athletes and volunteers in the Northern BC sport community to the FREE Sport for Life Summit in Prince George on April 14th and 15th.

This year’s event will be hosted in the Wolf Den at the Northern Sport Centre, and we are thrilled to offer you the opportunity to attend both days or either one. Join us from 8:30 am to 4:00 pm on April 14th and 8:30 am to 3:30 pm on April 15th. You won’t need to worry about lunch as we will provide it on both days.

The theme for this year’s Summit is “Thriving Through Changing Times” – reimagining how we connect, engage, innovate, and experience quality sport and physical literacy. Across sectors, from the municipal to the national level, we have all had to adapt. As we continue to integrate Long-Term Development and physical literacy into our communities, there is no better time to share the ways we have learned, grown, and expanded our policies, programs, and resources to meet current needs, engage and support diverse communities, and imagine new, exciting ways forward.

The Summit promises to be a memorable event, with exciting video keynote presenters Olympian Haley Wickenheiser and TSN Broadcaster Faran Lalji. We will also have opportunities to learn and share, with a Fort St. John presenter, Rishav Sharma, and Engage Sport North‘s own Erica MacLean. We’re so excited to hear our northern presenters’ stories, and we will have some fun activities planned for each day. There will also be a course on engaging those who are new to Canada via Physical Literacy, worth NCCP or PD points if you collect those. We encourage you to attend to learn and share your experiences in sport so that we may learn and grow together, making our Northern BC Sport community stronger.

We want to emphasize that there is no payment required for community participation, as Sport for Life has received funding for the Summit, so everyone can attend for free. This has been made possible by funding from the Government of Canada, and we want to ensure access and economic inclusion for all.
