There were many other great performances. Most importantly, Royals athletes came together as team, worked together and had fun in the process. From here, Royals athletes now turn their training towards the final push of the season as they prepare for the provincial championships and/or BC Summer Games in July.
Well done everyone. – Coach Trevor
