St. James Catholic School Students Selected as Player Escorts for World Cup Game

St. James Catholic School students Lyam and Brianna were selected as Player Escorts for the FIFA World Cup match on Wednesday, June 17, 2026, Match 21, between Ghana and Panama. This was truly an incredible honour and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for both students.

The World Cup only takes place every four years, and this year is especially meaningful as it is being hosted here in Canada for the first time. To be part of such a global event was an unforgettable experience, and the ST. James community is so proud that Lyam and Brianna represented their school on the world stage.

Lyam and Brianna walked onto the field alongside international soccer players in front of a worldwide audience. Their achievement reflected the pride and spirit of the St. James community.
