BC School Sports is thrilled to share news of the remarkable increase in student-athlete participation during the 2022-2023 academic year.

The over 450 BCSS member schools with a renewed emphasis on physical activity, inclusion, and engagement, drove opportunities for over 117,000 student-athlete registrations across 19 BCSS activities last year.
