groups are, but not limited to:
• Kitimat Lacrosse Association
• Kitimat Boxing Club
• Kitimat Dynamics Gymnastics Club
• Kitimat Karate Club
• Kitimat Tae Kwon Do Club
The trophy cases can be booked by contacting the Tamitik Jubilee Sports Complex at 250-632-8955 and

the rules and procedures for the booking of the trophy case.
The youth sporting group is responsible to maintain their display in an acceptable condition and the District
of Kitimat is not responsible for any damage that may occur to the displayed items.
Note: If a user group wishes to build its own trophy case to similar specifications as the existing ones supplied by the
District of Kitimat, then the user must receive approval from the Director of Leisure Services prior to construction/
installation. The trophy case will be for the exclusive use of that user and must be maintained accordingly.
