What a great day for sport in Calgary.

Today’s Calgary Booster Club media event was a fantastic celebration of excellence, leadership, and impact across our sporting community. We were thrilled to have most of this year’s major award winners with us, along with a strong turnout from local Calgary media.

There was a real buzz in the room as we recognized some truly outstanding individuals and shared their stories with the city. Events like this are a reminder that sport is about so much more than results. It is about commitment, character, community, and the people who help lift others along the way.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us today, helped make the event such a success, and continues to support amateur sport in Calgary.

We look forward to officially celebrating these incredible honourees at the Calgary Booster Club’s 72nd Annual Sports Gala on April 19. For more info and tickets, visit https://72sportsgala.eventbrite.ca/.
