This year, the canoe polo community had a new tournament penciled into the competition calendar. Our friends from the VIKP Vancouver Island Canoe Polo Club organized the first Island Cup at Camp Thunderbird near Sooke, BC.

The Gophers sent athletes to participate at this tournament who all came back stoked about the experience. We had a great weekend participating at a development tournament for all ages, enjoying camp food, sitting by the fire, and playing glow-stick polo after dark.
