Selkirk Saints Varsity
Dating back to the 1960s, athletics has been an integral part of student and campus life at Selkirk College. The Selkirk Saints were founding members of the British Columbia College Athletic Association (BCCAA), and competed in BCCAA league (formerly TCAA) competition for over 20 years Throughout this time, the Selkirk Saints acquired the following provincial/conference titles:
- BCCAA/TCAA Curling Champions (1984 - 1990)
- CCAA Curling Champions (1990)
- BCCAA Men's Volleyball Champions (1989 - 1991)
- BCCAA Cross-Country Running Champions (1995)
- TCAA Women's Basketball Champions (1977)
- TCAA Hockey Champions (1975)
Due to severe fiscal challenges in the late 1990s, Selkirk College discontinued its participation in intercollegiate sports. Today, however, Selkirk College has renewed its commitment toward varsity athletics and is looking forward to a successful long-term program.
Vision
To honour the overarching mission of Selkirk College, the Athletic Department supports the educational aspirations, academic progress and general welfare of the student-athlete. In competition, the Department fosters principles of sportsmanship, respect, fair play and athletic excellence. The Department should conduct itself in compliance with the BCCAA and College rules and insist on integrity, ethical conduct and accountability.
