FREDERICTON (GNB) – Team New Brunswick has announced the final rosters of the 26 teams that will represent the province at the 2025 Canada Summer Games taking place Aug. 8-25 in St. John’s.

Congratulations to everyone on this accomplishment, and I wish you well as you focus on your final preparations for the Games.”

“The Canada Games are a truly unique, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for athletes and coaches alike – not only to compete at a national level, but also to experience a multi-sport Games environment,” said Team New Brunswick chef de mission Nicole Smith, who is leading the team for the fifth consecutive Games. “The level of competition is high, and the experience our athletes gain will be invaluable as they move forward in their athletic pursuits. It’s also a chance for them to represent their province with pride, form lifelong memories and be inspired by the spirit of sport and community that defines the Canada Games.”

Team New Brunswick will compete in artistic swimming, athletics, baseball, basketball, beach volleyball, box lacrosse, canoe kayak, cycling (road and mountain bike), golf, rugby sevens, sailing, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, volleyball and wrestling.
