Local athletes plan to take part in 2010 Goodwill Games in Cancun

Sponsorships are being sought for local athletes heading to Cancun this March for the World Congress of Ama­teur Athletes 2010 Good­will Games.

Last weekend’s Kata-thon had members collect pledges to help team members attend.

Jessica Verbakel is just one of those heading to Mexico, representing Canada.

The event is held once a year and the cost of competing and travel falls upon the competitor. This year that is estimated to be $1,800.

With competitors from around the world ranging from ages 6 to 18, and a few older competitors, it is expected to be a lifelong experience for the amateur athletes.

Team Canada, in partnership with the World Congress of Amateur Athletes, is committed to the everyday martial artist.
