Congratulations to TISC”s Morgane Echardour and Travis Shaw who will be competing in the Pan American Games in Guadalajara, Mexico.
Morgane Echardour assured her spot on Canada’s Pan American Games roster by qualifying at the Canadian Outdoor Championships in Harriston in July. Travis Shaw, who also competed in the qualifying competition, was recently offered a spot on the team since last week Canada was given the option to allow a male skater to compete.
Wayne Burrett will also be in Mexico supporting Canada’s team. Mike Murray (TISC Life-time Honourary Member) is the team coach.
Being part of the Pan American Games is an important honour. The Pan American Games, which are the second largest multi-sport event after the Summer Olympics, feature sports such as archery, badminton, basketball, track & field, and more! Roller sports and roller speed skating is part of a great family and community of sports.
