Age Categories For The Niagara 2022 Canada Summer Games

Age Categories For The Niagara 2022 Canada Summer Games

November 25, 2020

By: Niagara Host Society / Canada Games Council

In light of the decision to postpone the Canada Summer Games in Niagara by a year, the Canada Games Council (CGC) has been working collaboratively with all affected National Sport Organizations (NSOs) to review each sport’s technical package and its athlete eligibility rules for 2022.

Where practical, sports have adjusted their age categories so that the same cohort of athletes that was eligible for the Games in 2021 will remain eligible for the Niagara 2022 Canada Summer Games.

All approved age categories for sports on the 2022 Canada Games program can be found below.

Age categories are uniquely selected for each sport with the goal of developing Canada’s next generation of national team athletes in the “Train to Compete” phase of the Long Term Development Model (LTD), or another suitable phase of the LTD as justified by a NSO, and approved by the CGC Sport Committee.

The LTD is a general framework of athlete development that also forms the basis for sport-specific models created by each NSO in Canada.
