Lindsey Ledingham, a student at Sheldon Williams Collegiate in Regina, became the 15th recipient of the Troy Vanin Award.  The award is presented annually by the Vanin Family to a player who is a member of the Basketball Saskatchewan provincial juvenile team in memory of their son, Troy.

            “This award is presented annually to a student-athlete who demonstrates leadership, ability and dedication on and off the court,” said Joe Ralko, President of Basketball Saskatchewan.

            The Troy Vanin Award includes a $300 bursary and a personal plaque.  Members of both the boys and girls provincial basketball teams are eligible to apply for the award.

            Applications were reviewed by a three-member committee of the Basketball Saskatchewan Board of Directors that consisted this year of President Ralko, Susan Jarvis of Regina and Wendy Benson of Saskatoon, a former provincial team head coach.

            Ledingham, a post, has played for both the provincial midget and juvenile teams during the past four years and has been a member of the Sheldon senior girls’ basketball team since she was in grade nine.

 

 

Basketball Saskatchewan would like to congratulate Lindsay

 & wish her success in her future endeavors.
