Greetings from those who make the Legion Nationals possible
Message from the Dominion President
This year, The Royal Canadian Legion is celebrating its 100th anniversary!
We are proud to have each of you with us during this special year, which is also the 48th year for our games. We welcome you athletes and coaches, and we thank our volunteers - and all others who are contributing to the Legion Nationals in 2026.
The Legion’s mission is about supporting our Veterans and families, promoting Remembrance, and serving our communities across Canada. But it is also about supporting and engaging with youth. These games are a result of that commitment, and over the next few days, you will learn about leadership, Canada’s diversity and you will make new friends.
Please also take a moment to think about the Veterans who have served and continue to serve our country. The have paved the way for us all.
I hope that you have a fantastic time here in Regina I hope you cherish each experience, each one will teach you something about yourself, your country and its great people, and about the larger world around you.
On behalf of the Legion’s Dominion Command, have a great Games!
Berkley Lawrence

Message from the Sports Committee Chair
Get ready for some pretty stiff competition but some pretty rewarding experiences too!
It takes a lot of determination to make it to the Legion Nationals, and this is when all your hard work pays off. Whether you medal or not, just being here means you’ve reached an important personal goal.
There have been many hours of training, lots of family and community support, and well wishes from friends to get here. You are one of this country’s most skilled under sixteen and under eighteen youth athletes and you should be proud of that.
These professionally run Games are held to a high standard and we are fortunate to have excellent support staff, officials, and facilities here at the Canada Games Athletic Complex in Regina.
The Legion Nationals can take you places, from achieving a personal best helping to jumpstart your future, to competing in other Canadian competitions or on the international stage. It’s up to you!
You have the support of our 300,000 Legion members across Canada, and together, we wish you good luck!
