RBC Training Ground searches for Olympic hopefuls in Red Deer
Local athletes had a chance to strut their stuff in front of National Sport Organizations on Sunday for the first-ever RBC Training Ground event held in Red Deer.
It took place at St. Joseph High School where roughly 100 athletes between the ages of 14 and 25 showed their Olympic potential by being tested for their speed, power, strength and endurance.
Medicine Hat native and Olympic Bronze Medal-winning cyclist Kirsti Lay says RBC has been the longest standing sponsor of Canadian Olympic athletes and they are now helping to find our next new Olympians with this event.
