3rd Session

A
Member
for
study
panorama
when
I
think
of
sports
in
surrey,
I
think
of
team
sports
like
soccer
basketball,
hockey
and
cricket,
but
today
I
want
to
highlight
how
popular
wrestling
is
and
how
many
prominent
wrestlers
come
out
of
surrey.
This
past
weekend,
the
pan
american
championships
took
place
in
acapulco
mexico.
A
Eight
athletes
from
bc
competed
in
these
matches
and
I'm
proud
to
say
four
were
from
surrey.
The
canadian
team
brought
home
11
medals,
including
three
gold
medals
awarded
to
surrey
athletes,
congratulations
to
anna
and
carla
godinez
gomez,
sisters
who
began
their
training
at
earl,
marriott
and
umar
jesse,
who
started
wrestling
in
khalsa
wrestling
club
in
surrey.
Congratulations
to
all
the
other
bc.
Athletes
who
represented
us
at
the
games,
the
years
of
training
and
commitment
to
the
sport
start
early
and
many
start
in
schools.
A
Schools
like
earl,
marriott,
guildford
park,
princess
margaret
tamanowest,
have
had
popular
wrestling
programs
for
years
teachers,
tom
willman,
gina,
carpenter
and
many
others
donate
their
time
and
talent
to
train
and
guide
and
mentor
these
young
adults

mckay.
Another
sorry
alumni
bc,
wrestling
hall
of
famer
was
one
of
the
coaches
for
the
games.
