Newsmakers
We are excited to bring back one of our favorite programs - Newsmakers!
Sport PEI will be recognizing the accomplishments made by those in the PEI sport community each month. If you know of any accomplishments from this past month, we ask that you submit them here. Submissions can be made for athletes, coaches, volunteers, teams, officials, or events.
We are searching for those accomplishments that are above the PEI provincial level (i.e. out of province competitions, Atlantic championships, Eastern Canadians, National Championships, ACAA, AUS, U Sport, etc.). Unfortunately, not all submissions will be included in our monthly recap, depending on what we receive that month.
