Overview
The Indigenous Sport Gallery (ISG) celebrates the rich history and many contributions to sport by more than 40 Indigenous athletes, teams, coaches, builders and volunteers in BC, and attempts to remedy the fact that Indigenous athletes and teams have not been properly celebrated and honoured over the course of the province’s history.
