Roger Tugak

Full Name: Roger Paul Clarence Elias Qiqiqtak Tugak Ittinuar
Hometown: Kangiqliniq (Rankin Inlet) , NU.
Currently residing in Iqaluit, NU working in his 3rd year as a Carpenter Apprentice.

Roger has represented Team Nunavut 2 times at the Arctic Winter Games playing indoor soccer. He has always been a sports enthusiast and continues to play co-ed soccer and basketball. This is his rookie year in co-ed volleyball and softball, and pretty soon to be his rookie year in Iqaluit Senior Men's Hockey. Ever since Roger's dad handed him his dumbells and barbells when he was 9, he has had a passion for weight lifting. He plans to revive this training and competing in Inuit Games (Artic Sports) within the coming year.

As Roger approaches his mid-twenties, he is determined to invest in his health as dynamically as possible.

During the winter season, Tugak loves to snowmobile race, and is looking to enter SnoCross racing this coming season. His father has also been raising husky pups for a few years, training them to mush. Roger hopes to carry on his family's tradition of dog mushing.

Sports and Recreation has given Roger the confidence and strength to mature into a young man, and so he is determined to apply himself vigorously to broaden his athleticism.
