Have you heard about Sports Day in Canada?

Have you heard about Sports Day in Canada?  Sports Day in Canada is a new national event that celebrates sport at all levels across Canada.  Using the model that CBC created for Hockey Day in Canada, Sports Day in Canada is an opportunity to showcase all manner of sports.   Sports Day in Canada will be the culmination of a week (September 11-18, 2010) of sporting events and festivals, celebrating grassroots sports stories, engaging citizens in physical activity and rallying local organizations to provide participatory opportunities in communities across Canada.  Our Association has provided information about Ringette to Sports Day in Canada and is hoping that Ringette will be included as part of the inventory of sports events that could be featured and profiled by CBC Sports, leading up to a 2-4 hour broadcast on September 18^th, 2010.   The objective of Sports Day in Canada is to reach out to all Canadians to build, solidify and celebrate the role of sport in our country and to inspire Canadians to get active and participate in sport.  Watch for programming in September!!
