Awards

Three prestigious awards are presented at the Closing Ceremonies of each Canada Games.

Canada Games Flag

At each Canada Games, points are awarded toathletes in every sport based on performance and participation. At the end of the Games, the province or territory with the greatest number of points from all events is declared the champion and presented with the Canada Games Flag.

Centennial Cup

The Centennial Cup is awarded according to the pan-Canadian sport development objective of the Canada Games. It is presented at each Games to the provincial or territorial team that shows the greatest improvement in its final standing from the previous Canada Games, with the comparison being made on a winter to winter and summer to summer basis.

The Centennial Cup was donated to the Canada Games by the City of Kingston in 1970. It was crafted in part from 37 precious metals and wood laminations representing 10 provinces and two territories.

Jack Pelech was Chair of the Board of Directors of the Canada Games Council for 30 years, from 1971 to 2001. This award is presented by the Interprovincial Sport and Recreation Council to the provincial or territorial team whose athletes, coaches, managers and mission staff best combine competitive performance, good sportsmanship and a spirit of fair play, cooperation and friendship.
