What are the Canada Games?
The Canada Games are the country’s largest multi-sport event, held every two years and alternating between Summer and Winter editions. They bring together the top amateur athletes from across Canada’s provinces and territories to compete, connect, and represent their region. These Games are about more than sport—they’re about building community, showcasing culture, and celebrating the power of youth sport in Canada.
What is Team Manitoba?
Team Manitoba is made up of the province’s most dedicated up-and-coming athletes, representing over a dozen different sports. Together, they form one united team—the Herd. Team Manitoba is led by Sport Manitoba, which supports athletes, coaches, and Mission Staff to make the experience meaningful, competitive, and fun.
Who are Mission Staff and what do they do?
Mission Staff are experienced staff and volunteers who play a vital role at the Games. They help with communication, team building, and athlete support before, during, and after the Games. Think of them as your go-to people and problem solvers—they’re there to help ensure your experience runs smoothly so you can focus on performing your best and enjoying every moment.
What is the role of coaches and managers?
Coaches and managers play a central role in your competitive experience at the Games. They’re responsible for preparing you to perform at your best—strategically, mentally, and physically. From refining game plans to guiding warm-ups and cool-downs, they’re there to lead your sport-specific development on and off the field of play. They also travel with you, stay in the Athletes’ Village, and help manage logistics so you can stay focused on competition.
Who selects athletes to compete at the Games?
Provincial Sport Organizations (PSOs) are responsible for identifying, training, and selecting athletes for their respective sports. They also choose the coaching staff and coordinate with Mission Staff to ensure everyone meets eligibility and registration requirements.
