To be The catalyst to increasing health, wellness and sport activity for youth in the Bulkley Valley
““Obstacles don’t have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it or work around it.” – Michael Jordan, former professional basketball player”
We believe
The youth of our community should have opportunities to participate in any sport
There should be no financial barriers to access sport and recreation
The opportunity to partake in sports should be available to all youth
Early sport specialization is not the answer to future success; accessibility to multiple sports is important
Sport associations have bandwidth and resource constraints and therefore have a limited ability to focus on increasing participation
Increasing the access to sport will improve the vitality of our community
