Recruitment of Indigenous athletes with Olympic dreams has been added to a Canadian talent identification program for 2023.
In its eighth year, Training Ground is a joint project of the Canadian Olympic Committee and sponsor RBC.
Testing will be offered at pre-Games orientation sessions held by every province for their NAIG teams. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Calls to Action in 2015 stated the need for "an elite athlete development program for Aboriginal athletes" among other requests to remove sports barriers for Indigenous Peoples.
"Now that kids can go in and test … it's accessible to them and they know the people also trying out. You never know what can come from it." Climbing Canada, Boxing Canada, Triathlon Canada and Wrestling Canada joined RBC Training Ground this year for a total of 12 national sport federations involved in 2023.
