Our Special Olympics Team BC 2024 Training Squad is excited to have two tremendous floor hockey teams:
- SO Team BC Comox Valley Vipers with players from SOBC – Campbell River, Comox Valley, Nanaimo, Port Alberni, Powell River, and Victoria
- SO Team BC Mission Blazers with players from SOBC – Abbotsford, Maple Ridge, Mission, and Surrey
For the Vipers, the 2024 National Games will be another chance for them to capture gold, after achieving silver medal finishes at the past two National Games. This has been a big goal for many members of the team.
The Mission Blazers are also eyeing big achievements and team success at the National Games, with everyone prepared to give it their all in Calgary.
“Our athletes are excited about the prospect of competing in Calgary. They are focused, determined, and proud to represent B.C. at the 2024 National Winter Games,” says Comox Valley Vipers Head Coach Randy James.
