Apr 21, 2018 | 7:00 AM

The GPRC Wolves female Basketball team continues to get ready for the upcoming season with new recruitments.

On Wednesday the club officially signed two new players for the 2018-2019 season as explained by Head Coach Mandy Botham.

“The first one is Heidi Derksen from La Crete. She is a guard and they just won the 2A girl’s provincial championship a couple of months back. The second one is a local girl from Grande Prairie and her name is Carly Rombs. She played at St.Joseph’s and she is a point guard.”

This brings the total amount of recruitment announcements for the Wolves female basketball team up to 6 for the upcoming season, and as Botham added more players are on the way.

“I’m still looking to add 2-3 more for next season. I am just looking for a very particular skill set and I haven’t found the right match yet. I am always travelling or on the phone when it comes to recruiting. I am hoping by the time we get to the fall all of the roster spots will be filled.”

The 2018-2019 season will begin in September.
