Matt Ng - Development Board Chair
Member since June 2013
Matt was born in Hong Kong before moving to Canada at an early age. He grew up playing sports with his older brother and friends. Matt played sports for his high school teams which included basketball, volleyball, tennis, and badminton. He won a Provincial Championship in badminton (yes, it's a real sport) in 2001, and that happens to be the only highlight in his athletic career. Matt then went on to coach youth sports and work with youth-at-risk for the City of Coquitlam Parks and Recreation for 10 years.

Kiran Basra
Member since February 2017
Kiran grew up in Burnaby and has always led an active lifestyle. She competed in sprint kayaking for 12 years taking her to National Championship events across Canada and Portugal for the Marathon Canoe and Kayak World Championship in 2009. She has always had a passion for helping the community and recognized how important sport was in shaping who she is today. Helping others get a similar experience through the work that Canada SCORES does is a natural fit.

Chantel heard about Canada SCORES Vancouver through Susie and has been helping us ever since. Even though Chantel was not able to attend our 2016 Celebration, she assisted us tremendously behind-the-scenes. While Chantel’s expertise is in Marketing and PR, she is eager to help in many other areas. Today, Chantel is already working to revive our Social Media presence and is looking forward to being a part of this year's events and successes.
