The Canadian Youth Short Track Championships presented by Intact Insurance features skaters aged 11 to 13 and serves as an introduction for developing skaters to represent their province or territory on the national stage. Skaters will compete for individual distance titles in their respective age/gender category.
Since 2022 KLB has been organizing the Skating With International Friends (SWIFT) project with the aim to bring skating to newcomer youth at no cost to the youth or families.
