A member of the Grande Prairie Piranhas will represent Canada later this summer at an international competition at a home pool. 

Marley Monson is one of 40 athletes named to Canada’s team for the 2026 Junior Pan Pacific Championships. 

This event will be held from August 17-20 at the UBC Aquatic Centre in Vancouver. 

Swimming Canada says this is the first time this event has been held in our country. 

It is expected to include over 300 swimmers from 16 countries. 

Monson recently competed at the Canadian Swimming Trials held in Montreal.
