It sure is disappointing seeing just 6 athletes in the sr C-1. I know the benefits of having the trials in California this time of year, but it excludes so many who would benefit from racing against the best in CAN. If it becomes a regular thing it will stunt development for many

I will say, that it’s GREAT to see 5 of the 6 canoers are from NS and that Connor Fitzpatrick took the win.

This week's #LacrosseLegend is a tribute to Wayne Finck. Hear from Finck's daughter, Julie, and others who tell the story of this all-around builder of Maritimes lacrosse. 🖥️ youtu.be/EuzBALvalNE 🎧 spreaker.com/user/ffmedia/la…

Well, with guys like this in the NHL to look up to, it’s hard for young players to see the value of character. google.com/amp/s/www.sportin…

We need more kids with character and values who will do the right thing in a situation like this. Every coach can help by not only teaching hockey, but also respect, trust and responsibility

I give up. teapawt.net/acoyne/status/15328157…
I was involved with an early version of OTP and I admit I didn’t see all the consequences clearly. We bought into the idea that sport is about celebrating victory. It’s not. It’s about celebrating the joy and devastation of athletes who give their all and sometimes succeed.
