Empowering First Nations youth with the sport of curling!

The kids at the Kipohtakaw Education Centre in Alexander First Nation are sliding into the world of Rocks and Rings FloorCurl with joy and enthusiasm. They ran a 4-week unit on curling which culminated in a tournament style competition at their winter carnival last week.

Here’s to building stronger, healthier communities, one rock at a time.

Weekend of Connection Through Sport

On March 13 & 14th students from three First Nations communities traveled to Calgary to take part in a unique curling experience. Through a floor curling bonspiel at WinSport, they learned the game, competed together, and built new connections all while representing their schools and communities with pride.

Impact Grows When We Collaborate

Healthy Horizons made a generous investment to ensure young people have access to sport and proper equipment. Sport Central continues to steward those resources and place gear directly into the hands of kids who need it most. We helped bridge that connection in the community so everyone involved could be recognized and celebrated.
