High Performance Team Roster Announced!!!

Following our second successful summer as an official team, and the inclusion of some great young talent, we opened an invitation to some select athletes who were interested in the BPR High Performance Program. The new members continue with the commitment to long-term development, and each athlete also fits the mould of showing an excellence of character that will sure to motivate those around them.

This brings a total of 16 athletes onto the BPR High Performance Program. They will be in attendance at many of the EES sessions in Kelowna, while Mike and Luke are each taking a role running one of the Satellite Series in Salmon Arm and Calgary respectively.

We invite you all to share words of encouragement as these dedicated athletes commit to a winter of dedicated training to help continue towards their long-term goals.
