The Canadian Olympic women's basketball team announced Tuesday features, from left: Kayla Alexander, Shay Colley, Nirra Fields and Sami Hill.
These will be real Olympics, with the crowds and the buzz and the pageantry.
No pandemic, no restrictions, nothing that turned 2021 in Tokyo into something less than a fewtimes-in-your-life opportunity.
And for members of the Canadian women’s basketball team named Tuesday to the squad that’s headed to Paris this month, the grandeur awaits.
As does a chance to make history. “It feels different because the last one was COVID, so I didn’t have the full experience; (I’m) looking forward to having that this time around,” said Milton’s Kayla Alexander, now a two-time Olympian. “But it’s always a privilege to be able to represent your country and that never changes.”
