North Battleford, Meadow Lake and the surrounding region will be well-represented when Team Saskatchewan takes to Niagara, Ont. for the 2022 Canada Summer Games.

Featuring nearly 380 of the top athletes from across the province from 70 different communities in nearly 20 sports, Saskatchewan’s team will compete against the elite from across Canada at the tournament.

Among those competing from the local area are Battleford’s Taryn Hannah, Wilkie’s Isaiah Mamer, and Meadow Lake’s Avery Pearson.

Hannah is coming off her first season of post-secondary volleyball with the Brandon University Bobcats, and will suit up for Team Saskatchewan’s women’s volleyball team. A veteran of the provincial program, Hannah has been involved with Team Sask. since the 15U level.

Mamer, who helped lead his McLurg Broncs senior volleyball team to a provincial gold medal during the school season, is a commit of the University of Saskatchewan, and will play for the men’s provincial team in Niagara. Mamer last competed with Team Sask at the Western Canada Summer Games in 2019.

She will suit up for Saskatchewan’s Athletics team.
