Ontario Youth Championships Update: 13 February 2024

There were some minor edits to the 2024 Ontario Youth Championship Race Notice (highlighted in yellow). The new version, along with the registration link, can be accessed on the Zone4 event page.
We encourage you and your athletes’ families to read the Race Notice thoroughly and consider the timelines and refunds section.
Sault Ste. Marie has also been affected by low snow and warm temperatures this season. We are committed to hosting this race, and our weather seems to be getting better, but we want to highlight that our go/no-go date is February 23.
