Donsberger among eight on National Athlete Pool in skeleton 

Kyle Donsberger, who hails from Regina, was named to the National Athlete Pool by Bobsleigh Canada in the sport of skeleton.

Kozun, Canada qualifies for Paris 2024 Paralympics with World Cup silver 

Regina’s Julie Kozun helped Canada punch their ticket to Paris 2024 by claiming silver at the Sitting Volleyball World Cup and earning the title of highest ranked team that had not already secured their place in the Paralympics. 

After Kozun and Team Canada won their first match at the World Cup, the team continued to succeed with a five-game winning streak. Canada defeated Slovenia 3-1 (25-21, 25-17, 18-25, 25-14), Ukraine 3-0 (25-13, 25-14, 25-16) and the Netherlands 3-0 (25-20, 25-17, 25-8), which secured their place in the quarterfinals. Canada defeated Egypt 3-0 (25-11, 25-5, 25-18) in the quarterfinals and Germany 3-0 (25-13, 25-17, 25-23) in the semifinals. 

In the final against China, Canada lost 1-3 (23-25, 16-25, 25-17, 20-25) and placed second. China had already qualified for the 2024 Paralympics , so the spot was passed to Canada as the next highest ranked team.
