"To
me, the opportunity to compete against peers in other nations is
the ultimate challenge for any athlete." |
"It’s
an opportunity of a lifetime, I will look back on this for years
to come and remember it. As well I get to play Ringette, I will
take any opportunity to play, wherever it may be." |
"I
thought this would be a life experience for me with ringette and
an awesome thing to do with great people and people who love the
sport as much as I do." |
"I
played last year and enjoyed it and I was excited about the opportunity
to play in Finland, a real ringette nation. I also like the fact
we are exposing the sport to other countries." |
"This
is the second year I will be going on the tour because I thought
that it was such a great experience last year. Anytime that we get
to showcase our sport I think every ringette player should take
advantage of it." |
"Not
only is the Polar Bear Ringette program a great opportunity, it
also gives the sport exposure to countries who do not know the sport
well. In Prague, many hockey teams are there from all around the
world so it is very likely that they will see ringette being played." |
