Nominated by Water Ski Wakeboard Nova Scotia (WSWNS), Tori Pace, Ryanne Surrette, Aselin Robertson, and Taylor Jurcina are the Cleve’s Source for Sports Good Sport recipients for September 2021.
These four young women participate in high-level competitions, representing waterskiing at the provincial level and beyond. This summer, they stepped up to ensure WSWNS’s accessible Skiability program, affectionately known as, “Wild Women Wednesdays” took place.
Tori Pace, Ryanne Surrette, Aselin Robertson, and Taylor Jurcina’s dedication to the sport gave skiers of all ability levels the chance to compete and presented new skiers the opportunity to try the sport, barrier-free. Volunteering their time to be side skiers, dock support, safety swimmers, and boat spotters made this year’s WSWNS accessible program possible.
