What is Team BC?
All athletes selected for the Provincial Team Program, and their club coaches, are automatically members of Judo BC’s Team BC for the entire season (Sept to August). Athletes that are not part of the Provincial Team Program become part of Team BC when they travel with the team to out of province events and when they are selected to attend Elite or Open Nationals. They are a part of Team BC for the duration of the trip.
TEAM BC (BC Government) is also the name of separate provincially funded organization that coordinates the trips to Canada Games for all BC athletes and coaches from all the different sports.
