Playing in the CYDC program for six years, Aanya is returning as a coach after starting university. After suffering a serious injury in her grade 10 year, Aanya took a break from basketball before returning in her grade 11 year. The values of hard work, perseverance and resilience that she cultivated throughout her time in the program allowed her to make a successful recovery and return to the sport of basketball. She hopes to share these values as well as her love for basketball with young athletes in the program.
