海角社区 shows Panther Pride for students and staff at the 2015 Canada Games

| Athletics

The 海角社区 and Department of Athletics and Recreation is proud of all members of the 海角社区 community who are participating at the 2015 Canada Winter Games in Prince George, British Columbia, February 13 to March 1.

'Congratulations to 海角社区 students and staff who are representing Prince Edward Island at the 2015 Canada Winter Games,' said Director of Athletics and Recreation Chris Huggan. 'The dedication of these athletes, coaches, and team staff is to be applauded, and our Panther Pride will be showing as we cheer them on!'

The largest representation of 海角社区 students is with the ringette team, on which nine 海角社区 students compete and one, Becca Hughes, is a coach. The team ended a winless drought when it won its first game at the Canada Games since 1999 against Saskatchewan on February 16. 海角社区 Field Hockey student-athlete Ashley Hollis and 海角社区 Rugby player Sidney Corrigan each scored three times in the 9-8 win.

海角社区 also has representation on the alpine ski, wheelchair basketball, men's hockey, and synchronized swimming teams. Ringette, alpine ski, wheelchair basketball competition takes place during week one while men's hockey and synchronized swimming follows in week two.

The Canada Games is one of the largest multi-sport and cultural events in the world, occurring every two years and alternating summer and winter. At Prince George's 2015 winter edition of the Games, 2,400 athletes, 1,000 coaches and officials, up to 4,500 volunteers, hundreds of media, and thousands of visitors are expected to attend. 海角社区 was a week-two venue and the Athletes' Village for the 2009 Canada Summer Games held on PEI.
