The Williams Lake Skating Club got its first taste of competition Oct. 19-21 travelling to Kamloops for the 2018 Super Series Autumn Leaves.
Nine of the club’s competitive skaters — Bailey Jones, Camdyn Cochrane, Sydney Mason, Ella Kruus, Ryanne Jones, Julia Bowman, Kolbi Seterengen, Emma Penner and Reagan West — joined skaters and teams from throughout the province for the event, held at the McCarthur Island Sport and Event Centre in the Tournament Capital.
“We had very successful results for the first competition of the year,” WLSC head coach Joanne Macnair said, noting she thinks for how early in the season it is, her skaters are performing extremely well.
“Many of our girls just got back on the ice in September and they were up against skaters from the Coast and Okanagan who skate year round.”

Macnair said a highlight from the weekend were several personal best scores achieved by the club.

“We are now working hard for our next competition.”
That event, the Okanagan Interclub, takes place Nov. 23-25 in West Kelowna.
