Three LTCHS teams recognized with Sportsmanship Awards
Three LTCHS teams have been recognized with Sportsmanship Awards.
A first, second or third placing is what most athletes aim to achieve during a tournament or competition, but there is a higher award that is handed out by the Alberta Schools’ Athletic Association, and three Lindsay Thurber Comprehensive High School teams have received that honour.
The school’s Boy’s Senior Volleyball Team, the Boy’s Senior Curling Team, and the Boy’s Senior Handball Team each won the Sportsmanship Award at their respective ASAA tournaments during the 2023/2024 school year.
“To win three Sportsmanship Awards in one year is really amazing for our school. It speaks to the culture we are trying to build within our athletic program,” said Chris Good, Principal at Lindsay Thurber Comprehensive High School. “The Sportsmanship Award is the highest honour that ASAA gives out. When you qualify for the provincial championships the host committee meets and discusses which teams are exhibiting sportsmanship during the tournament. It’s judged over the entire tournament and at the end, the most deserving team is awarded the honour.”
