Send UBC to Kinesiology Games!
WELCOME TO THE UBC KIN GAMES TEAM PAGE!
Who are we?
We are a group of 18 UBC students from the Faculty of Kinesiology that are being given the AMAZING opportunity to travel to the University of Toronto in March for the 2019 Kinesiology Games!
What is that, you ask?
The Kinesiology Games is the largest student-led interscholastic Kinesiology Conference in all of Canada!! Teams sent by universities from all over the Country battle it out head to head to prove not only that their school is the greatest, but also that Kinesiology is the best faculty of all time! Throughout the 3 day event, Schools compete in four subcategories: Sports, Spirit, Dance, and Academics. These scored are then combined, along with spirit challenges leading up to the event to crown the winner of the famous shoe and of course ULTIMATE bragging rights. Not only does this conference propose some healthy competition, but it allows for KIN students from every province to make meaningful connections, allow a narrowed focus on personal well-being and mental health, as well as creating networking opportunities and an environment for passion for fitness and a healthy lifestyle to thrive full force.
How can you help?
This conference, however is extremely unique as it is almost entirely student-funded out of their own pockets. Although there is some support from our UBC faculty, we have to find our own creative and innovative ways to fundraise enough money to get us starving students to Toronto this year! It will cost anywhere between $800-$1000 for each student with all costs included (hotels, flights, team clothing, registration fees, etc.) This is where you come in!
Absolutely every dollar counts in these next couple of months for us, and you donating a mere $10 can make the WORLD of a difference!! If you are unable to donate, PLEASE share this with your friends, family, AKA everyone you know!
So.... Want to help us young uni kids represent and live up to our name as West Coast Best Coast?!?!
