CENTER OF EXCELLENCE

The backbone of WAKO Canada is our member club. Athletes, coaches, officials and volunteers all come from clubs that are fostering a sense of community in their locations. That sense of community has become the culture of WAKO Canada. Many of our clubs have outstanding training programs, class curriculums, strategies for athlete development or school business systems.
