Join us at 11am PT on July 22nd. Michael Linklater is one of the top 3 on 3 basketball players in the world. Erica Gavel is one of Canada’s leading wheelchair basketball players.

Michael has established himself as one of the FIBA 3×3 World’s top professional basketball players and was a Team Canada member. He played
professionally with the CEBL Rattlers and led them to win championship in 2019 before retiring. He is a proud Nehiyaw (Cree) descending from the Thunderchild First Nation, located in Treaty 6 Territory.
