Kugluktuk volleyball tourney a success

The Kugluktuk District Education Authority of which I chair wishes to wholeheartedly thank all volunteers and organizers of the territorial volleyball tournament held in Kugluktuk January 10-11, 2004.

The KDEA recognises that sports plays an important role in promoting healthy lifestyles among youth, and that sports participation often leads to academic success. Without the large number of coaches, referees, cooks and other volunteers, the youth involved in this event would not have had this postive expereince.

The KDEA strongly supports parents and other residents of Kugluktuk providing this type of involvement in the lives of our youth. The KDEA also wishes to thank all visiting teams and coaches for their very gracious stay in our community. Everyone – well played and well done!
