A pair of Brookswood Bobcats have been invited to Toronto for a Basketball Canada age-group assessment camp.
Aislinn Konig and Louise Forsyth are among the 53 invitees to the camp, which begins on Friday (Dec. 11) and runs until Dec. 15.
The camp is for female players born 1998 or later and the coaching staff will determine which players will be invited to the next stage of the 2016 age-group programs.
Konig is in Grade 12 at Brookswood Secondary and is off to North Carolina State after graduation on scholarship.
She has won the past two most valuable player awards in helping the ’Cats win back-to-back B.C. senior girls 3A provincial titles.
Forsyth is in Grade 11 and has played a key role in Brookswood’s last two championship titles.
And last June, she was part of the Canadian squad which won gold at the FIBA Americas U16 basketball championships in Mexico.
“We look forward to assessing progress of returnees and welcoming new nationally identified into our camp and see them compete and provide direction on their individual performance plans,” said Denise Dignard, director of women’s high performance.
