Since the 1998 Winter Olympic Games in Nagano, Japan, our members have been part of the Core Health Care Team for Canada's Olympic athletes.Serving elite athletes has led to affiliations with many institutions and associations, including the Canadian Olympic Committee (COC) and the Canadian Sports Centres.
