This fall I received "Sportsperson of the year" from Squash Yukon.

Living in the Yukon makes the travelling cost higher than in other places. I will be using the grant money for my travelling and lesson costs.

The goal of our training is to attend the Nationals this spring. The junior early morning program contains roughly 15 kids and teenagers. Half are females and I am the youngest female participating in the program.

Thanks
Lia Johnson
