Background
This project began with a simple goal: to give our athletes an opportunity to compete, grow, and experience sport beyond what is available locally. The International Children’s Games (ICG) provides a unique platform for young athletes aged 12–15 to represent their city on an international stage, and we saw an opportunity to bring that experience back to Chatham.
While this initiative includes athletes from both the Chatham Pool Sharks Swim Team and the Chatham Wildcats Basketball Team, the basketball side is especially focused on showcasing a strong group of girls from the Chatham-Kent Wildcats U14 basketball team. These athletes represent the continued growth of girls’ basketball in our community and the importance of creating meaningful opportunities for young female athletes to compete, lead, and believe in their place in sport.
What started as an idea has grown into a shared effort between coaches, families, and community supporters, all working together under one identity: Team Chatham Canada. Our goal is not only to compete, but to provide an experience that builds confidence, independence, cultural understanding, and pride in representing something bigger than themselves. At the same time, we aim to bring our community together on the international stage.
What happens when four young athletes, a few aprons, and an entire community come together for a great cause?
An unforgettable night at Boston Pizza!
The Chatham International Children's Games 3x3 Basketball Team traded jerseys for serving trays and were blown away by the support from family, friends, local businesses, and community members who stopped by to cheer them on.
Every table served, every smile shared, and every donation received helps these athletes continue their journey toward representing Canada in Hualien, Taiwan this summer.
The girls worked hard, had a blast meeting everyone, and were reminded just how special the Chatham-Kent community truly is.
A huge thank you to the staff and management at Boston Pizza for opening your doors and creating such a fun and welcoming atmosphere. We are incredibly grateful for your support.
The road to Taiwan continues, and thanks to nights like this, these athletes know they have an entire community behind them.

BRONZE MEDALISTS!
What an incredible weekend for our U14 Girls! These girls left their hearts on the court and came home with some well-deserved hardware. It was a true rollercoaster of grit and determination. And here is how it unfolded: On Friday, the girls kicked things off strong with a massive win against Pelham, in a down to the last seconds 37-35 win.
On Saturday morning, the team battled hard against Mississauga, but couldn’t hold them. Which resulting in a 52-42 loss. The girls found themselves in a "must-win" situation heading into game 3 in a nail-biter against Kingston. Our Wildcats pushed it to OVERTIME and clinched the win 45-43, to punch their ticket to the medal rounds.
On Sunday, the Wildcats sealed the deal with a dominant performance against the Barrie Royals to officially secure the BRONZE in a 44-35 victory!
The Future is bright for these Wildcats as they look to keep that momentum overseas at the International Children's Games
