Two UVPCS athletes set their sights on the prestigious Far Western Championships in California, one of the continent’s most competitive age-group meets. Coming from different backgrounds and communities, both brought unique strengths to the pool, united by a shared dream to compete among the best.

Canada Games 2025 St. John’s, NL

UVPCS athletes made a strong impression at the 2025 Canada Games in St. John’s, Newfoundland. Maelle Sanborn and Alex Camaraire arrived early to train with the Newfoundland team and acclimatize before the rest of Team BC joined on August 8. Their preparation paid off, as all four PCS representatives left with medals.

16 UVPCS athletes and 3 coaches took to the sky and flew to Montreal to compete at the very first edition of the Grand Prix du Quebec July 24-27th at the beautiful Parc Jean Drapeau outdoor Aquatic Complex.
