Sports Day in Canada and Sports Day in JCRs & Cadets

CBC Sports Day In Canada

Please continue to the following pages, to learn more about training in the Junior Canadian Ranger Programme.

The second annual Sports Day in Canada is a celebration of sport in communities across the country. It is presented by CBC Sports, ParticipACTION and True Sport.

With the JCR and Cadet Programmes playing such a large role in promoting recreational sports and personal fitness & healthy living, where possible, JCR Patrols, Cadet corps, and squadrons are called on to join in Sports Day in Canada to help celebrate the power of sport, to build community, fortify our national spirit and facilitate healthy, active living.

What to Do?

Schedule your Patrol’s, corps’ or squadron’s regular recreational sports activities to coincide with Sept 17th or during the lead-up week of Sept 10-16th.

Check out the Sports Day website for event ideas or events happening in your community.

If you want to do more, consider:

Co-hosting your event with near-by JCR Patrol, Cadet corps or squadron or local youth group.
Organizing your event to include Adult Committee, Cadet League, Local Sponsor, or family members.
Making it part of an open house to help attract new JCRs or Cadets and locally promote the program.

Gain some publicity for your Patrol, corps, or squadron. Register your event on the Sports Day website and access free and easy-to-use media tools. Your event could be profiled on the CBC Sports Day broadcast. When registering your event, please ensure that you write "JCR" in the title.

Share how your day went through Xperience, your new online newsletter.
