REGINA - They say when you look good, you play good.

The games begin with the opening ceremony on Saturday, Feb. 18 and conclude with the closing ceremony on Mar. 5.
Athletes who compete at the Canada Games represent the country’s next generation of national, international, and Olympic and Paralympic champions. Team Sask alumni Mark McMorris, Emily Clark, Rylan Wiens, Shelby Newkirk, Kenzie Priddell, Catriona LeMay Doan, Graham Fish and Brittany Hudak to name a few, can all count their previous Canada Games experiences as a stepping stone to the Olympic or Paralympic Games.
Team Sask will consist of a total of 317 athletes, coaches, managers, and support staff and will participate in all 20 Canada winter games sports.
