OFSAA and Marlow Partner Up

OFSAA is very pleased to announce a new partnership with Marlow.

Need an introduction and some background on the company?

Marlow is on a mission to revolutionize menstrual health. Starting with clean and comfortable period care, Marlow doubles up with fun and accessible health education.

Marlow was founded in 2021 by four long-time best friends – Simone, Harit, Kiara and Nadia. What started out as a conversation among four friends about how annoying periods were, turned into a mission to positively transform the way women experience cycles. Marlow empowers our community to move, play and be free, no matter what time of the month it is. Marlow is here to bring you refreshing, shame-free, and inclusive conversations and period care.

OFSAA was delighted to have the Marlow founders present at last week’s 2024 Student Forum and we look forward to seeing them at upcoming OFSAA spring championships and festivals.

Introducing our March 2024 Athlete of the Month Presented by @BCMilk: Levi Burton from Gidgalang Kuuyas Naay Secondary! Levi was the co-captain of his school’s senior boys basketball team this past season. A determined and encouraging teammate, Levi played a crucial role in helping bring the GKNS team from a small community in Haida Gwaii to the 2024 BCSS 1A Boys Basketball Championship Final. The team finished as silver medalists (the highest the school has ever placed in a provincial tournament) and Levi was named a 1st Team All-Star.

Introducing our March 2024 Athletes of the Month Presented by @BCMilk: Bethany & Alicia Evans from Westsyde! The two sisters achieved a provincial title at the 2024 BCSS Girls Curling Championship this February. Their passion for the sport extends beyond competition; Bethany and Alicia volunteer regularly as coaches for the Junior Curling League at Kamloops Curling Centre, contributing positively to their community. Off the ice, they both maintain a high academic standing in school. Congratulations Bethany and Alicia!
