TORONTO 2015 PAN AM GAMES TICKET PROGRAM GUIDE April 2015

MESSAGE FROM ROSIE MACLENNAN Competing on home soil at an international multi-sport Games is a rare opportunity for any athlete, and it s something I ve dreamed of my entire athletic career. Next summer, for the first time, I will finally have the opportunity to compete with some of the best in the world, right here at home. There will be more than 6,000 athletes from 41 countries competing for a spot on the podium during 20 days of competition. I can tell you, Team Canada is already preparing so that when our moment comes, we ll be ready. The Pan Am Games have a special place in my heart. After winning silver for Canada at the Rio de Janeiro Games in 2007, I went on to win gold at the Guadalajara Games in 2011. Standing on the podium and hearing O Canada were incredibly emotional and proud moments for me. It is what athletes strive for, to live our dream and make our country proud. I can only imagine what it will be like to hear the roar of a passionate home crowd as well. The success of previous Games held in Canada has shown athletes that the passion, cheers and support from the crowd can mean the difference between silver and gold. I know that all the athletes, especially Team Canada, are in for the experience of a lifetime, as are all of those who come out to cheer us on! With 36 sports, including 52 disciplines, there s something for everyone. I hope that all the athletes competing will be able to walk into the venues before their competition and see the stands filled with enthusiastic fans of all ages. On behalf of all the athletes hoping to compete at the Games, we thank you for your support. It means the world to us to know that we have the country behind us and we look forward to having you cheer us on in the summer of 2015.

On y 10, 2015, millions will watch Canada welcome the nations of the Americas to the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am Games with the Opening Ceremony, a celebration of the sports and cultures of the Western Hemisphere. Canada s internationally-renowned Cirque du Soleil will infuse the ceremony with its revolutionary stagecraft, acrobatics and pageantry as it delivers a one-timeonly show. The theatrical and cultural elements of the Opening Ceremony will frame iconic moments such as the Parade of Nations and the lighting of the Games cauldron. The Closing Ceremony on y 26, 2015, will feature music organized by Live Nation Entertainment and will include top Canadian and international musical acts. Always a party-like atmosphere, the Closing Ceremony will honour outstanding Games performances and the contributions of all Games partners, while handing the baton to Lima, Peru, the Host City of the 2019 Pan American Games.. Tickets from $90 Opening Ceremony Closing Ceremony $100 ($50), $150, $225, $350 $90 ($45), $120, $150, $200 Limit: 10 tickets per session 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26

Diving is one of the most-watched and acrobatic sports in the Games. Launching from the three-metre springboard or dropping from the 10-metre platform, divers plunge to the water with a dizzying combination of twists, somersaults and rotations in both pike (legs straight) and tuck (legs pulled close to the body) positions. Then the athletes break the surface of the pool with great speed and ideally a rip entry that almost eliminates the splash. Spectators have the opportunity to watch both men and women compete in singles and synchronized pairs from both heights. The sheer number and variety of dives in the competition makes the newly constructed CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Aquatics Centre and Field House the site of one of the most actionpacked events at the Games.. Tickets from $20 Preliminary Sessions Medal Sessions $20 ($10), $30 $35 ($17.50), $45 Limit: 20 tickets per session

Aquatics Open Water Swimming Ontario Place West Channel (OPW) 955 Lake Shore Blvd West, Toronto, ON M6K 3B9 8 Start Time 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 3:30 p.m. M M * M=medals For further information, see the detailed schedule beginning on page 68. It s the ultimate challenge of swimmer versus distance as both men and women power through a 10-kilometre course with no pool, no walls to touch, no flip turns, just open water ahead and behind. This is the marathon of aquatics. The race start is a colourful, noisy spectacle of churning water, arms and legs as the athletes fight for early position using the freestyle technique. As the line of swimmers stretches out, navigation becomes part of the challenge of the event as staying on the most efficient line from buoy to buoy conserves precious time and energy.. Tickets from $35 Preliminary Sessions Limit: 20 tickets per session Medal Sessions $35 ($17.50)

Aquatics Swimming CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Aquatics Centre and Field House (PAC) 875 Morningside Avenue, Toronto, ON M1C 0C7 9 Start Time 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 10:00 a.m. P P P P P 7:00 p.m. M M M M M * P=preliminaries; M=medals For further information, see the detailed schedule beginning on page 68. The pool often produces some of the most memorable performances and athletes of any Games. Each event and distance breaststroke, butterfly, backstroke, freestyle and individual medley contested over 50, 100, 200, 400, 800 or 1,500 metres produces a different experience for fans. Ferocity and grace. Endurance and speed. Athletes will push for the podium in a brand-new competition venue the CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Aquatics Centre and Field House that is destined to become a springboard for future Canadian swimming superstars. Cheer individual swimmers through the heats and into the finals, and rise to your feet as athletes put forward their best four-person teams in the relay events.. Tickets from $40 Preliminary Sessions Medal Sessions $40 ($20), $50, $60, $70 $80 ($40) $100, $120, $140 Limit: 10 tickets per session

Above the water, synchronized swimming is art, beauty, dance and precision. Below the surface, fiercely conditioned athletes perform remarkable feats of strength, timing, flexibility, balance and conditioning. In fact, even while performing perfectly choreographed acrobatics, synchronized swimmers will often spend the first minutes of their programs under water, working off the strength of a single breath. Athletes compete to music as either duets or teams of eight. The judges provide marks for two routines the technical and the free against standards for execution, artistic impression and difficulty. Canada and the United States have been dominant powerhouses in the sport of synchro, having placed in the medals at every Pan Am Games since 1971.. Tickets from $20 Preliminary Sessions Medal Sessions $20 ($10), $30 $35 ($17.50), $45 Limit: 20 tickets per session

Aquatics Water Polo Atos Markham Pan Am/Parapan Am Centre (MAR) 16 Main Street Unionville, Markham, ON L3R 2E4 11 Start Time 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 8:00 a.m. P P P P 12:00 p.m. P P P P 4:00 p.m. P P P P 6:00 p.m. P P M M * P=preliminaries; M=medals For further information, see the detailed schedule beginning on page 68. Water polo may seem a little like soccer played with hands in a pool, but this sport has a ferocious nature. Teams of seven athletes a side (six in the field, one goalie) contest four eightminute quarters without touching the sides or bottom of the pool. The players strength and endurance is remarkable and on display perhaps most impressively during an eggbeater, a powerful leg-kick technique that can lift the athlete high out of the water to defend or attempt a shot on net. The competitive nature of water polo is clear right from the start of each quarter when one player from each team engages in the sprint the water polo equivalent of a full-speed faceoff to gain first control of the ball.. Tickets from $20 Preliminary Sessions Medal Sessions $20 ($10), $30 $35 ($17.50), $45 Limit: 20 tickets per session

12 Archery Varsity Stadium (VAR) 299 Bloor St W, Toronto, ON M5S 1W2 Start Time 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 10:00 a.m. P P P M M * P=preliminaries; M=medals For further information, see the detailed schedule beginning on page 68. Archery is a sport unique for the value it places on stillness. As a spectator, there is electricity in the moments of quiet and anticipation, followed by the breathtakingly accurate release of the arrow to targets 70 metres away. Across a range nearly as long as a football field, archers will hit bull s-eyes just 12.2 centimetres in diameter. While archery is an ancient sport, Pan Am archers use highly sophisticated equipment as they work through a qualification round before beginning the compelling one-on-one matches that determine the medallists and Games champion. The headto-head duels in the final rounds are gripping, alternating-shot theatre in a sport where even a flicker of tension or distraction can be the margin between victory and defeat.. Tickets from $20 Preliminary Sessions Medal Sessions $20 ($10) $35 ($17.50) Limit: 20 tickets per session

Start Time 7 Athletics Marathon Ontario Place West Channel (OPW) 955 Lake Shore Blvd West, Toronto, ON M6K 3B9 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 7:00 a.m. M M 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 13 * M=medals For further information, see the detailed schedule beginning on page 68. The quintessential test of athletic endurance, the marathon is one of the crowning events of any Games. World-class athletes will complete the 26.2-mile (42.2-kilometre) marathon course running at a pace that for most people would be a full-out sprint. This is no weekend jog. Being up close to the marathoners provides a true appreciation not just of the fitness that traditionally defines the race, but the impressive speed as well. The name and distance of the race find their inspiration in the legend (untrue, as it turns out) of the Ancient Greek messenger Pheidippides who was said to have run the 26.2 miles from the town of Marathon to Athens to warn of a Persian invasion in 490 BC.. Tickets from $35 Preliminary Sessions Limit: 20 tickets per session Medal Sessions $35 ($17.50)

Athletics Race Walk Ontario Place West Channel (OPW) 955 Lake Shore Blvd West, Toronto, ON M6K 3B9 14 Start Time 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 7:00 a.m. M M * M=medals For further information, see the detailed schedule beginning on page 68. 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 If you re expecting a stroll, this is the wrong event. The athletes in race walk cover ground at a remarkable pace, but do so within the strict limitations of the sport s rules. During the race, athletes must have one foot in contact with the ground at all times as well as keeping their supporting leg straight. They must hold this position from the time their foot first impacts the ground until the supporting leg passes below the body. To increase their pace while meeting this standard, athletes swivel and tilt their hips to lengthen their strides. Throughout the 20-kilometre races for women and 20- and 50-kilometre races for men, officials line the course, watching every athlete for breaks in form. If a race walker loses contact with the ground at any point, he or she earns a red card. Three cards in one race results in disqualification.. Tickets from $35 Preliminary Sessions Limit: 20 tickets per session Medal Sessions $35 ($17.50)

No venue at the Games will offer the variety of iconic events that the CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Athletics Stadium will offer during the track and field competitions. The track events feature distances from 100 metres to 10,000 metres, with the excitement of hurdles and the steeplechase as well. The field competitions include the throwing events of shot put, discus, javelin and hammer throw, while the jumping events offer pole vault, high jump, long jump and triple jump. Track and field also includes, for men, the legendary decathlon (runs of 100 metres, 400 metres and 1,500 metres; 110-metre high hurdles; throws of javelin and discus; shot put; pole vault; high jump and long jump) and for women, the equally impressive heptathlon (100-metre hurdles, high jump, shot put, 200-metre run, long jump, javelin and 800-metre run)..

Badminton athletes are among the fittest and most agile in any sport and badminton contested at this level often looks like a video playing in fast forward as the competitors flash side-toside and forward-and-back to track a shuttlecock (also known as a birdie) that can reach speeds of 350 kilometres an hour. The sounds are rapid-fire as racquet strings pop and shoes squeak through both singles and doubles play. The newly constructed Atos Markham Pan Am/Parapan Am Centre provides a tremendous space for watching a sport that is lightning fast in every direction... including vertically, with a ceiling that allows shuttlecocks to travel more than 12 metres above the court.

Modern pentathlon s distinctive competitive structure also provides great theatre as the first athlete across the finish line of the final event wins, with the earlier events establishing a time handicap for the final element of the sport a race that combines a series of 800-metre runs with pistol shooting.
