Many Estevan athletes have already gotten their first taste of action at the 2014 Saskatchewan Winter Games in Prince Albert.
The synchronized swimming events are in full swing and Estevan athletes make up the majority of the South East synchro team.
The figures final took place on Monday, and Estevan's Tracy Irwin earned the first medal of the Games for the South East team, as her score of 57.813 was good enough to take home silver.
Estevan's Brooke Kruger just missed out on a medal, coming in fourth place with a score of 57.293.
Other Estevan athletes in the figures event were Hannah Whitman (seventh), Danika Poirier (14), Kelsey Potoma (15th), Alyssa Wieting (20th), Eden Palmer (27th), Nyla Dyck (30th), Hannah Mantei (31st), Marlie Weinrauch (35th) and Taylor Kuntz (36th).
Preliminary events were also held in the solo and duet disciplines on Monday. Kruger placed third in solo, while Potoma was seventh, Mantei was eighth and Dyck was 11th.
In the duet preliminaries, Irwin and Whitman were third and Palmer and Wieting were sixth.
Finals in both disciplines were to take place on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, in figure skating, three Estevan athletes took part in the free skate on Monday, which was divided into two groups.
Emily Hanson was fourth in her group, Nikki Kistanov was fifth and Madison Folkerts was sixth.
Also on Monday, the South East boys hockey team defeated Regina 7-4 in their opening game. Estevan's Cole Fonstad is a member of the team.
