Canada West delays decision on second term conference competition

EDMONTON—Canada West says that it is delaying the decision on whether second term conference competition will go next year to no later than Nov. 2.

The decision to delay comes after Board of Directors received feedback from student-athletes. Canada West says the delay would allow for more time to assess the feasibility of conference play returning with the pandemic continuing to linger.

The announcement pertains to the following second term team sports: basketball (men’s and women’s), hockey (men’s and women’s), volleyball (men’s and women’s), rugby 7s (women’s) – along with Canada West championships in curling (men’s and women’s) swimming (men’s and women’s), track and field (men’s and women’s), and wrestling (men’s and women’s).

Canada West cancelled all fall term team competition in June, and subsequently opted for cancellations of CW championships in cross country, and later golf.
