Teine Energy Ltd. Named as Presenting Sponsor of the 2024 Saskatchewan Summer Games in Lloydminster
Lloydminster, SK (June 5, 2023) — The Saskatchewan Games Council and 2024 Saskatchewan Summer Games Host Organizing Committee (2024 Games) are thrilled to announce that Teine Energy Ltd. has signed on as the presenting partner of the 2024 Saskatchewan Summer Games. The Games will take place in Lloydminster from July 21-27, 2024.
Teine Energy is a privately-held Canadian energy company focused on environmentally conscious development of low-risk, geographically concentrated assets. The company’s primary operations are currently situated within southwestern Saskatchewan developing both primary and enhanced oil recovery projects. Saskatchewan is a key province for Teine’s operations and the partnership reflects their ongoing commitment to giving back to the communities in which they operate.
This partnership follows Teine’s presenting sponsorship of the 2023 Saskatchewan Winter Games in Regina. Teine came onboard as presenting sponsor in late 2021, and supported the Games through a landmark event that marked the 50th anniversary of the Saskatchewan Games and saw Regina play host to the biennial multi-sport games for the first time in the program’s history.
The 2024 Saskatchewan Summer Games in Lloydminster, presented by Teine Energy, will see competition among upwards of 1,800 youth participants from across the province in 15 different sports. These include Archery, Athletics, Baseball, Basketball, Beach Volleyball, Canoe Kayak, Golf, Soccer, Softball, Special Olympics - Bocce, Swimming, Tennis, Triathlon, Volleyball, and Wheelchair Basketball.
2024 Games Co-Chairs Wendy Plandowski and Aaron Rawlake, along with Games Manager Nicole Clow, have spent the spring recruiting committed community leaders to join the volunteer HOC and help lead Games planning, which is set to ramp up in the coming months. Numerous sport legacy projects are planned to accompany the hosting of the 2024 Games, including major upgrades to the VLA Soccer Fields. These upgrades and other legacy projects are funded through a partnership between the Saskatchewan Games Council and the City of Lloydminster.
Lloydminster was previously set to host the 2020 Saskatchewan Summer Games, which were cancelled due to the pandemic.
