  • Bc Disability Games
    2021 SASKATCHEWAN SUMMER GAMES TECHNICAL PACKAGE Technical packages are a critical part of the Saskatchewan Games. They guide the selection of athletes by prescribing the age and eligibility requirements, assist the organizing committee by detailing tournament formats and scoring procedures, assist the Districts and Provincial Sport Governing Bodies (PSGB) in verifying eligibility, help with budgeting by describing the number of participants permitted, advance coaching certification by stating minimum requirements and generally contribute to athlete development by identifying each PSGBs version of developing young amateur athletes. Every Saskatchewan Games’ coach, manager, host sport directors, District sport contacts and District sport councils has an obligation to read and understand every aspect of the Technical Package. Failure to do so could cost an athlete his or her eligibility for the Games and could affect final standings or the conduct of the competition. If someone does not understand an aspect of a Technical Package, he or she is to seek clarification from the Saskatchewan Games Council or the respective PSGB. Technical Packages are developed primarily by PSGBs, following principles, guidelines and requirements of the Saskatchewan Games Council. As the overall governing body of the Games, the Council has the ultimate authority for Technical Packages, but this authority is exercised only with the knowledge and understanding of the PSGB concerned. Changes initiated by the PSGB must be directed to the Saskatchewan Games Council for approval. The proposed changes must have solid rational for enhancing the sport technical requirements. Changes to age groups, eligibility requirements and team sizes or staff compliments after 18 months prior to the games will not be considered.
