“Craven SPORT Services has been built with an integrated support team philosophy as a driving principle, and we want to provide CSCS Campus athletes with the opportunity to access this type of environment to support their health, development and performance. We look forward to working with each athlete individually and helping them maximize their training opportunities while in Saskatchewan, as well as provide a facility to bring together high-performance athletes from various sports to train together and work collectively towards their individual goals.”
– Bruce Craven, Partner, Craven SPORT Services
Since 1991, Bruce Craven has been a key contributor to the development of what is now the Canadian Sport Centre Saskatchewan. At Craven SPORT Services, we’ve always been passionate about supporting Saskatchewan’s high performance athletes in their pursuit of excellence at national and international levels, including the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Our facility was built on the principle of integrated support—bringing together experts in strength & conditioning, physiotherapy, and sport science. Becoming a CSCS Campus was a natural next step, allowing us to offer this high-performance environment to more athletes as they progress through their long-term development and prepare for the demands of elite competition.
We are excited to support CSCS Campus athletes as they prepare for national and international competition. Our team looks forward to working with each athlete individually, tailoring their training to help them maximize their potential while based in Saskatchewan.
We’re also proud to provide a space where high performance athletes from different sports can come together to train, share experiences, and grow collectively. With a strong track record of developing athletes from grassroots to the world stage, we’re eager to be a part of each athlete’s journey.
Our training approach starts with building a strong foundation. We prioritize teaching proper movement mechanics to develop injury resilience and athletic efficiency—key for sustainable, long-term performance. Each athlete receives a progressive, personalized program designed to match their developmental stage and sporting needs.
We also use advanced data tools like VALD Force Decks to objectively track progress and make informed decisions about training load and progression. This ensures athletes receive safe, effective, and measurable support.
Beyond physical training, our experienced team—alongside a broad network of allied health and medical professionals—offers integrated support across disciplines. We’re committed to meeting the evolving sport science and medicine needs of CSCS athletes as they chase their performance goals.
