2022 BC Winter Games Team List

2022 BC Winter Games Participant List

Although the 2022 BC Winter Games was regrettably cancelled, Gymnastics BC would like to recognize the athletes, coaches and judges that composed our 2022 team. The countless hours of hard work, dedication and perseverance it takes to reach the Games is something that each individual should be extremely proud of.  

The official team list can be accessed by clicking on the button below. 

Qualified athletes are invited to participate in a hybrid session at the Langley Gymnastics Christy Fraser Memorial Invitational. A memo with information on this was circulated to main club contacts yesterday. Please contact cormerod@gymbc.org for more information.

Retaining Girls in Sport and Physical Activity

Girls and women face more barriers to accessing sport opportunities, which is why retaining their participation is critical. In partnership with Canadian Women & Sport, viaSport will host a lab session on February 8 from 10-1130am, where attendees will learn about how their sport programs can best support girls and increase the chance that they will continue participating and thriving through sport.

Attendees will learn how holistically designed sport programs that take into account girls psycho-social needs can increase their participation and retention in sport.
