We have created social media posts recognizing all 101 inductees to date, which are featured on our Facebook and Instagram social media accounts.
This project is made possible through a grant from Sask Lotteries, administered by the Saskatchewan Sports Hall of Fame in Regina. It allowed us to hire a tech-savvy and creative Sacred Heart High School student to complete this project.
Keep an eye on our social media accounts -- click the links below to view and follow them -- and find out more about all those who have been inducted in our Sports Hall of Fame since 1994.
Back in 1938 or 1939, Marguerite Smith wrote a poem about the Yorkton Terrier team that played that winter season in the Saskatchewan Senior Hockey League.
The poem was preserved all these years by Joyce Anaka of Yorkton, a school friend of Marguerite, and herself a young hockey fan, who provided it to us.
The poem, and other stories and memorabilia from past years in local sports now have a home on this website, on a new page called Memory Lane.
If you have written stories and/or photos of bygone days in Yorkton sports, please get in touch.
Yorkton's sports history goes back nearly a century, and inductees into the Sports Hall of Fame go back to the 1940s and 1950.
To introduce some of our Home Town Heroes to the younger generation, we have produced six worksheets that explore the accomplishments of 24 of our inductees. The project was sponsored through a grant from Sask Lotteries.
If you know or have children interested in sports, and they know how to do basic research on this website, they will be able to complete the worksheets. PDF files of the worksheets can be viewed, downloaded or printed by clicking the button below which will take you to the page where they are available.
