Saskatchewan Athletes Return Home with Hardware!

Ron Brandt competes in snowshoeing

Special Olympics Saskatchewan is incredibly proud to have all 13 of our athletes who competed on Team Canada return home with a medal! More than that, all of our athletes worked hard, did their best, and made memories to last a lifetime! 

Ron Brandt returns home to Saskatoon from his first appearance at the World Games. Competing in snowshoeing, Ron brings home a Gold medal in the 4x100M relay.

Competing in his third World Winter Games in speed skating, Terry Livingstone of Regina, returned home with a gold medal in the 777M race.

The Team Canada West Floor Hockey Team played hard to earn their way to the gold medal game against South Africa. After a great final game, and lots of hard work from the team, they came out with a silver medal to add to Team Canada's standings.

Saskatchewan was also represented by mission staff, Darlene MacQuarrie and Chelsea Fidler. Our very own Darren Whitehead from Prince Albert, also attended the games as a floor hockey official. 

We are so incredibly proud of the hard work and dedication!
