The underlying story that fueled our fall athletic program was the energy and capacity of our grade 8-10’s to compete in their respective over-age divisions. To field teams for senior competitions, it required many of our junior aged students to “play-up”. Unsurprisingly, many of our grade 9 & 10 students were eager to fill the void available on our senior teams.

 At the recent Kootenay volleyball finals, our senior teams astonished many, and perhaps themselves with their fervor to compete. Congratulations to our senior boys for advancing to the semi-finals, and to our senior girls who experienced a very proud championship Saturday in winning their quarter final and semi-final matches before losing to Sparwood in the final.

This Saturday, our grade 7/8 and junior teams are anxious to test their skills in their respective West Kootenay finals.
