Saskatchewan is being represented at an upcoming national entrepreunership gathering.

The 10th annual E-Spirit Aboriginal Youth Business Plan Competition is taking place in Ottawa next week.

Ochapawace high school teacher Rob Cote is very proud of the five students he is taking on the trip.

Cote says his students came up with an idea that suited the sports-minded community — a hockey academy.

He says he taught the class how to shoot a hockey skills video to promote their idea.

The Business Development Bank of Canada offers an online course for Aboriginal youth in Grades 10 to 12.
