The highest-ranking age-eligible Competitors in 29 identified Skill Areas were selected to represent Canada on the international stage. Over the past year, the members of WSTC 2026 have worked alongside their Trainers and Experts to sharpen their skills and prepare for the unique challenges of international competition.
