COVID-19 Resources for Sport Yukon Members

As an organization, Sport Yukon will continue to follow the recommendations of the Yukon Chief Medical Officer (CMHO) and his office for the well-being of our members and staff.

To support our members and encourage sport and physical activity in the Yukon we will work in conjunction with the CHMO, provide updated information, resources and are available to support and assist members with the development and completion of operational and event plans.

We encourage members to share their successes, and to reach out with any questions and support needed.
