TELUS has extended their sponsorship of BC High School Basketball, committing $225,000 to support youth basketball programs and scholarships in BC through March of 2016.

This funding extends from the BC Boy's and BC Girl's High School Championships and now includes the BC Boy's and BC Girl's Junior High School Championships.

TELUS will also fund 30 scholarships for graduating students who have demonstrated outstanding citizenship, leadership and academic excellence.

The BC Boy's Championships are underway at the Langley Events Centre and will conclude with the Championship game on Saturday night.
