2027 Canada Winter Games Yukon Snowboard Team
March 6 – 14, 2027 (Week #2), Québec
Team Selection & Training Overview
There will be a multi-step selection process beginning with an Application Phase, followed by a Training & Evaluation Phase, and ending with the naming of the final CWG roster, which will move into the Team Phase. This process allows for maximum training opportunities for a greater number of athletes, yet ensures those who are most dedicated and fit for competition will represent the Yukon
at the games.

Team Composition

Note: Athletes will be selected for either freestyle or speed and they must train and compete in that discipline. However, athletes may — with approval from the Head Coach — compete in the other discipline as well.
