Juli Prokopchuk Brattan
Event Manager, BC Winter Games
Having recently relocated from Ontario, Juli began working with Triathlon BC to then move over to the BC Games Society as an Event Manager where she will be assisting host societies with the planning and execution of the BC Winter Games.
While in Ontario, Juli worked with Special Olympics Ontario as the Manager of Major Games and Competitions. In that position, she worked with the games organizing committees for 15 provincial games. She was also the Chef de Mission for Team Ontario attending seven National Games and was the Team Manager for Team Canada attending the 2017 World Winter Games in Austria, and the Assistant Chef de Mission for Team Canada to attend the 2022 World Winter Games in Russia.
Sports have always been a passion for Juli who is always keen to learn new sports and take on new challenges. Her early competitive years included swimming, bowling, volleyball, basketball, curling and track. Then moving onto triathlons and rugby where Juli played and coached at the Provincial Level. The move to the west coast prompted the need to be on the water which led her to Outrigger Canoe racing and competing on a high performance Dragonboat team
Aside from sports, Juli volunteers with dog rescues and the Victoria Humane Society, enjoys hiking with her dogs and cat, and engages in the odd cold-water swim, by choice!
