W’Hoop It Up – Canada’s Senior Women’s National Basketball Team Faces Off Against Portugal in Victoria BC
Victoria basketball fans, get ready! Team Canada will return to Victoria for W’Hoop It Up; a pre-Olympic training camp with an exhibition game against Portugal on June 26, 2024 at the Save-On Foods Memorial Centre. We set the record, now let’s break it!
In June 2023, the team played in the Rim2Rim series against Japan in Victoria, setting the record for the largest home-game attendance with over 4,600 fans. This year the goal is to break the record again, with a sell-out crowd of 6,400+ at Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre.
Women’s Sports are finally getting the attention they deserve and basketball leads the way with recent record-shattering viewership during this year’s NCAA March Madness tournament. Peaking at 24 million viewers during the final, it became the most-viewed college basketball game (men’s or women’s) of all time.
