After a week of acclimatization and training, our athletes are ready to put their best bowl forward and take on the top bowlers in the world. Week one will feature the women playing singles and fours, while the men play pairs and triples. Kelly McKerihen (Toronto, ON) will represent Canada in the singles and after months of showing great success on the greens in the Southern Hemisphere, McKerihen is ready to compete. The women’s fours team represents a powerhouse of international experience with Leanne Chinery (Victoria, BC), Shirley Fitzpatrick-Wong (Winnipeg, MB) and Jackie Foster (Lower Sackville, NS). Rookie lead Pricilla Westlake (Delta, BC) may be new to international team play at this level, but the team is looking to capitalize on her recent successes at the 2016 World Indoor Cup and North American Challenge. “Even though New Zealand is now my home, I will always be a proud Canadian. I consider it a great honour to be able to wear the Maple Leaf and represent Canada to the best of my abilities” stated Chinery. On the men’s side, Ryan Bester (Hanover, ON) and Steven Santana (North Vancouver, BC) will be a heavy favourite in the pairs. These two are looking to continue the momentum from their gold medal win at the 2015 Asia Pacific Championships.
