Training through a couple months of change and adjustment, athletes of Connaught Skating Club demonstrated their high level of quality and talent by bringing home 17 medals from last weekend's B.C. Coast Regional Championships in Chilliwack.

The Regionals are an excellent time for competitive skaters to gauge their preparation against the best skaters in the Lower Mainland before heading to the Provincial Championships, which are now just two weeks away. These skaters will have a home ice advantage as Connaught Skating Club is hosting the event -- Nov. 11-15 at Minoru Arena.
