We support young First Nations athletes to build personal strength, strengthen cultural connections, learn from and compete with other young athletes abroad, and participate in cultural exchange. Athletes who are identified through selection camps for their sporting skills, must also bring or learn skills in traditional drumming, singing, or language which they will share with other First Nations participants and international hosts. Prior to travel, athletes will also learn about the cultures of the host countries that they will visit. Many of the First Nations athletes have never flown on an aircraft before, so they will also receive support in obtaining passports and travel permits, understanding how international travel works, and ways to best represent First Nations and Canada while abroad. Each year, we aim to secure support to send up to 20 First Nations athletes and their coaches, family chaperones, and support team to abroad each year to play exhibition games against local teams and to share their talent and culture. So far, we have received support from a First Nations skills development agency, a major international energy company, traditional knowledge keepers, and a handful of small businesses. We are working to expand this base of financial and in kind support for costs such as uniforms, equipment, travel and accommodations, souvenirs, and related items and services. We believe this work will advance reconciliation (specifically the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada's Calls for Action regarding youth, health, and business reconciliation), build for future generations, and prevent mental health and addictions issues for current and future generations.
