The GT Kanaimas are set to showcase their talents at the 2024 Amerindian Heritage Games, scheduled to run from September 11 to 15.
With high expectations for both their men’s and women’s teams, the Kanaimas are eager to make their mark in this prestigious event.
The female team is aiming to secure their third consecutive title after a triumphant performance in 2023, where they defeated Region 10 with a 4-2 victory.
Meanwhile, the male team, which did not advance past the quarterfinals last year despite their potential, is determined to capture their first championship win.
Head Coach Len Thomas expressed strong confidence in his teams’ abilities and emphasized the importance of collective effort.
He highlighted the motivation and unity within the team as key factors in their preparation for the games.
The Amerindian Heritage Games are a significant part of Amerindian Heritage Month, celebrating the rich culture and history of the nation’s Indigenous peoples.
This year’s theme is “Many Voices, One Song, Celebrating Amerindians Heritage 2024,” reflecting the diversity and unity of Amerindian culture.
The GT Kanaimas are poised to make a strong impression and are looking forward to competing at this year’s games.
