CBC18-07-2025
An awareness event to highlight the significance of braids in Indigenous culture, and the importance of cultural training in basketball, was held at Winnipeg's Canada Life Centre before Thursday's Sea Bears game. This comes after a 12-year-old boy was asked to tuck his braid into his jersey by a referee at a minor league game in May. Cheryl James says her son, who only started wearing a braid two years ago, was deeply hurt.
