“I am emailing each of you today to let you know about addition of the new Men’s & Women’s Cricket teams at Keyano College in Fort McMurray, Alberta. These teams are currently looking for student athletes, both Canadian and International, who competed in a high school or club Cricket team and who may be interested in continuing their academic career at Keyano College while competing in the sport that they love. We have a large number of academic Certificate, Diploma and Degree programs and Huskies Athletics have great athletic scholarships that the student athletes chosen to be part of these teams may be offered.
