A small group of students from the University of Waterloo hope their passion for hockey can help build bridges with Indigenous youth.
The students recently organized a high performance hockey camp at the university's rink and invited young players from Saugeen and Nawash First Nations to take part.
Nolan Lee was inspired to host the camp while listening to his professor talk about reconciliation during an Indigenous Studies class. "I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to just give back," he said. "We were super lucky.
We played hockey our whole lives and all the friendships and opportunities hockey given us — we just wanted to give back and share our love for this sport.
