Our club will be sending 12 skaters to the Super Series Provincial Championships to compete against the best from the entire province of B.C. and territory of Yukon March 7 to 10 in Kelowna. There will be more than 1,000 skaters taking part in this four-day event. Good luck to you all. 

The SCSC is also proud that two of our Star/competitive skaters have been given the opportunity to participate in this year’s Provincial BC/YT Section Development Camp in Kelowna, March 29 to 31, which includes Star 4 to Senior Competitive. Skaters must meet target scores in their 2023-24 competition season. Isabella Watts and Brielle Avila both were invited to this provincial high performance seminar. Congrats skaters!
