HAWKS UPDATE
By Christian Loro, Athletic Director
After a school year where sports
competitions were cancelled due to
COVID-19, everyone has been excited to
hear the welcome news that we can have
games again this year. There are a lot of
extra protocols to work through, from
provincial and regional restrictions, BC
School Sports, and individual schools,
but we are more than willing to navigate
through this complexity to have the
students competing again. Here are
some highlights from the secondary
athletics program:
volleyball
This year we had the largest
participation we’ve seen for volleyball,
with enough students for 5 high school
teams. Two years ago, we only had
one team. The Bantam Girls team was
coached by Mrs. North. The girls were
excited, responsive, learned lots and
there was a great team atmosphere.
The Junior and Senior Girls teams
trained together, coached by the
passionate and competitive Mrs. Emry.
