A 13-year-old boy from PG is in the running to become Youth Athlete of the Year for Sports Illustrated.
Jeremy Bull is one of two local athletes who will represent Canada this October at the Taekwondo World Championships in Croatia.
His mother, Alana told MyPGNow.com he is one of the youngest black belts in the province and has accomplished so much even living with an auditory processing disorder (hearing disability).
“He is dedicated, he is passionate, and he loves the sport. He has worked so hard to get to this point.”
The grand prize is $25,000 and voting ends on Thursday, August 7th at 7pm Pacific Time.
Other athletes from PG who are in the running include fastball pitcher Issiah Mahil and football player Grayson Bigham.
