Girls in Sports - Community Event

Join us for a fun and inspiring event designed to help girls ages 6 to 14 discover the joy of sport by connecting them with local teams, role models, and community opportunities. 

What's on the Agenda?

Participants will have the opportunity to hear from a diverse group of athletes whose journeys reflect perseverance, confidence, growth, and the lifelong value of sport. From young rising athletes to experienced competitors, our panelists each bring a unique perspective on how sport can shape identity, build resilience, and create meaningful connections within the community. 

Girls in Sports Panel (starting at 1 p.m.) 

Hear from girls involved in sport as they share their positive experiences, followed by an interactive questions and answers period.

Meet our panelists: 

• Paige Rashotte-Garcia: She is a dedicated Pointe-Claire swimmer whose journey has been shaped by resilience, perseverance, and a deep commitment to her team. 
• Amy Lara Voiculescu: She is a passionate young swimmer who began competitive swimming later than many of her peers. Her journey is a great example of how hard work, discipline, and self-belief can lead to rapid growth, and how it is never too late to start, improve, and surprise yourself. 
• Eva Cao: She is a talented diver whose athletic background also includes gymnastics and fencing, giving her a unique and powerful perspective on discipline, focus, and courage. 
• Talia Brott: She is a Masters swimmer whose return to the pool became a remarkable story of rediscovery, belonging, and achievement. She is  also a medalist at the World Masters Championships in Singapore.
• Julianna Hillier: She is a young swimmer who has grown up in the Pointe-Claire aquatic community and brings an enthusiastic, welcoming, and team-first spirit to everything she does.
