Emma Watson (2024)

Swimming

On the ice and in the pool, Emma Watson has made her mark.

As a ringette player, Watson has a provincial title on her resumé and was selected to skate for B.C.’s U-19 double-A team at the 2022 national championship tournament in Calgary. The next season, she kept ringette closer to home and captained the Zone 8 rep team. Watson still plays ringette but has now aged out of competitive play.

As a swimmer, Watson got a late start – at age 13 – but proved to be a natural. She rose through the ranks as a member of the Prince George Pisces and routinely finished swim meets with gold medals around her neck. At the B.C. Summer Swimming Association provincial championships in 2023, she grabbed gold in the 200-metre medley, won a silver medal in the 100-metre breaststroke and a bronze in the 100-metre backstroke.

Watson is now giving back to the sport, in a coaching role with the Pisces.
