High Performance 

The AUS Championship will be taking place this weekend, February 23-24, in Moncton NB. Heading into conference championship weekend, a number of New Brunswick athletes are sitting in the Top-12 U Sports rankings. Remaining in these rankings would mean an automatic qualification into the Canadian National Championships. Goodluck to all of our athletes, and be sure to come out and cheer them on at UdeM. Full rankings can be found in the link below:

Numerous ANB records have been shattered in 2024, showcasing the exceptional accomplishments of our current group of high-performance athletes.

In other high performance news, ANB has recently secured funding for the next two years from the Canadian Sport Institute Atlantic (CSIA) to improve our performance pathway and better prepare our athletes for high levels of competition.
