The BC Summer
and Winter Games
are two of the largest multi-sport Games in British Columbia
and in Canada
, bringing together young developing athletes from every region of the province.
While competition is the backbone of the Games, at its heart are the spirit of competition, camaraderie and friendship, teamwork, and the setting of goals for individual and community excellence.
A team of volunteers in the Games host community ensure that everything runs smoothly - from the Torchlighting Ceremony approximately 100 days before the Games, to medal presentation ceremonies, to the sport competitions and the Closing Ceremony.
Everyone goes home a winner with a personal legacy that only participation in the BC Games can provide.
