Canada's Tournament CapitalWelcome to Kamloops, known as Canada's Tournament Capital. The City of Kamloops is situated in the Thomoson Valley where the north and south Thompson Rivers join: in fact, the name Kamloops translates to "meeting of the waters". Divided at its centre by water, it is accessible by air, bus and rail. Kamloops boasts a population of over 90,000 people and continues to grow, with a real estate market of 39,000 homes.

The city landscape features an array of mountains, grasslands, river valleys and even deserts, and outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy activities year-round. This leads to popular leisures such as: ATV riding, skateboarding, fishing, cross-country skiing, hiking, and mountain biking. Avid golfers can play at any of the 12 distinguished courses in Kamloops.
The city earned the title of "Tournament Capital" after hosting numerous first class sporting events.

Over 90 different sporting events are held in Kamloops per year.
