He became Canadian junior champion in 1998 in St-Hyacinthe, only 4 years after starting table tennis. Unfortunately, he passed away in 2007 at the age of 26, following a car accident.

A tribute to Steven Samson was given at the Saturday evening Gala. A new trophy bearing his name was presented to Alicia Côté and Antoine Bernadet recipients, athletes representing well the course and had Steven’s personality.
