(TORONTO, ON. April 16, 2024) The 2024 Canadian National Blind Hockey Team traveled to St-Louis April 12 – 14 2024 to compete against the USA Blind Hockey Team in the fifth International Blind Ice Hockey Series. Team Canada is now celebrating their 5th consecutive win in this series as they continue to bring gold home to our nation!

The International Blind Ice Hockey series is a best of 3 series that Canada and the USA Blind Hockey teams have hosted since the inaugural event in 2018. Over this weekend, Canada lead the score board with over 30 goals: Game 1: 13 – 2, Game 2: 7 – 1 and Game 3: 13 – 3.

Team Canada features 20 players and six rookies making their Team Canada debut including the youngest player ever to be named to the team (Dante Giammarioli, age 15 from Edmonton). The team is
made up of players from across Canada from Vancouver, BC to St John’s, Newfoundland. 

Although this is a rivalry, it’s crucial for the two countries to work together to grow the Para sport of Blind Hockey. Currently only Canada and the USA have national teams, however there are now Blind Ice Hockey programs in England, Finland, Sweden, and Russia with the goal of founding a World Championships for the sport and establishing a pathway to the Paralympics.

“From the returning players to the rookies who played for the first time, the work ethic is unmatched across the board – that was some of the best Blind Hockey I’ve witnessed from our Canadian team,” explains GM Luca DeMontis. “All the Blind Hockey players who took part in this year’s International Series have incredible talent and this team is going to take this Para sport to the next level.”

The Para sport of Blind Hockey is played by athletes who are blind or partially sighted who have approximately 10% vision or less.  The sport uses an adapted puck that makes noise and is larger than a traditional puck.

The tournament was broadcasted online, and videos are available on this YouTube Channel. For more information please visit: www.canadianblindhockey.com

Calgary, Alta. (April 14, 2024) — Canada struck gold twice today at the FIS Ski Cross Junior World Championships in Idre Fjäll (SWE). Emeline Bennett (Whistler, BC) repeated her gold medal performance
to become the first Canadian to twice be crowned ski cross Junior World Champion. Kaleb Barnum (Fernie, BC) competing in his first Junior Worlds, took gold on the men’s side, with teammate Nicholas Katrusiak (Whistler, BC) taking silver.

Racing in her third Junior Worlds, Bennett the reigning Junior World Champion, won each of her heats today to capture gold.

“I was a little nervous coming in,” said Bennett. “It’s definitely a bigger track than last year but we had a lot of time on it and I started to feel pretty comfortable. I really wasn’t sure it was going to happen though. I was dead last at one point in the semis but used the draft at the bottom to make up some places. I’ve very happy with the result.”

Barnum, competing in the opposite bracket from fellow Canadian Katrusiak, won each of his four heats to take gold.

“It feels pretty sweet,” said a smiling Barnum. “It was a super exciting day and it was a good time racing Nick (teammate Katrusiak) in the finals with us coming from opposite sides of the bracket. It was fast racing today on a big track with a great drag strip at the bottom.”

Katrusiak, racing in this third Junior Worlds took silver today improving from 19th in 2022 and 9th
in 2023, won each of his heats before settling for second in the finals.

“It feels really good,” said Katrusiak. “I put in a lot of work this past year and it feels good to have it all come together. Kleb (teammate Barnum) and I had a fun battle in the finals and it was a really good day for the team.”

The 2024 Junior World team, supported by Sporting Life, will look to continue their success with the team event tomorrow, Monday April 15. To see the full schedule please click here and a live stream can be found here.

TORONTO – April 12, 2024 – The Coaches Association of Ontario (CAO) in partnership with Hydro One Inc. (Hydro One), have introduced an all-new essential resource aimed at tackling hazing in sport. Launching today, the Hazing Prevention Playbook for Coaches is a ground-breaking resource to help address a pervasive issue across all age groups and sports in Canada.

“Having dedicated over 25 years to researching hazing across Canadian sport, I’ve seen firsthand the damaging effects it continues to have on athletes and teams of all ages,” said Dr. Jay Johnson, a leading Canadian researcher on hazing from the University of Manitoba. The athletes in his ground-breaking 2018 study indicated that nearly 100 percent of all high school students have both an awareness of and an expectation to be hazed. What are often described as harmless traditions can take on subtle or more overtly violent forms, potentially leaving lasting permanent psychological and physical impacts.

The Hazing Prevention Playbook is a comprehensive guide that squarely addresses the vital role coaches play in recognizing and preventing hazing activities. It equips coaches with actionable strategies to create
positive team cultures and dispels the misconception that hazing is an acceptable part of team building.

“Hazing is something a lot of coaches try to avoid dealing with and it’s common to hear that it’s a rite of passage acting as a test of an athlete’s commitment to the team,” said Stephanie Sutton, a youth coach for over 30 years. “These activities are humiliating, degrading and abusive which is truly the opposite of what sport and physical activity provide. By creating new traditions that foster a positive culture, we’ve eliminated hazing from our team. This new resource greatly enhances a coach’s role in uniting and
empowering every individual.”

The resource was created in response to the findings of the 2023 Ontario Coaching Report, which recently revealed that 33 per cent of coaches are aware of hazing within their own club or organization, with a
staggering 82 per cent of those aware saying it is an acceptable part of team building.

“Team building is important and there are ways to do it that are fun, and not endangering the wellbeing of athletes,” said Jeremy Cross, Executive Director, CAO. “As the architects of a culture that is safe and
inclusive, coaches have a crucial role to play in being aware of instances of hazing and then being the catalyst to more positive team building strategies.”

The Hazing Prevention resource marks the beginning of a broader initiative by CAO and Hydro One to tackle these unsafe practices. The next installment of the Ontario Coaching Report, due in late 2024, will delve deeper into team culture, how coaches are creating positive sport experiences and examine activities like hazing and safety. These initiatives underscore a commitment to eradicating hazing from sport by empowering coaches with tools that prioritize the well-being of all participants across Ontario.

“By prioritizing safe spaces that embrace all team members,” said Dr. Johnson. “We not only foster a positive environment but also lay the foundation for success both on and off the field.”

Coaches can access the new resource for free online at safesport101.coachesontario.ca. Safe Sport 101 is a partnership between Hydro One and CAO dedicated to giving coaches the tools they need to make sport safe, fun, and inclusive for all. It includes a virtual hub that offers coaches additional free safety resources including an eight-part eLearning series and community grants.

The Coaches Association of Ontario is an independent, non-profit organization that supports coaches from community to high performance across all sports in Ontario. Providing coach development, funding opportunities, and events that support, recognize and represent all coaches across the province.

April 09, 2024 – Volleyball Canada supports the recent launch of the Abuse-Free Sport National Registry as another tool to enhance sport safety in Canada.

“We were very encouraged that the National Registry was launched and view this as another important step to improve sport safety in Canada,” said Mark Eckert, Volleyball Canada’s President and CEO.

“We are very proud that our provincial and territorial partners are aligned with Volleyball Canada, allowing all our 70,000-plus members to access this system if their provincial sport governing body does not already have a system in place. The fact that we have a number of cases listed is an indication that the system is working to investigate and sanction the small minority of individuals who abuse their positions in our sport.”

Volleyball Canada (VC) and its PTAs are aligned on Safe Sport policies and signed on to Abuse-Free Sport together. Therefore, all of VC’s 70,000 plus members are eligible to submit complaints through Abuse-Free Sport if their PSO does not already have a complaint management process in place. This contrasts with many other NSOs that are only signed on at the National (and National Teams) level.

As a result of being an early signatory, and one which includes its membership, Volleyball Canada has several cases either completed or in the process of being investigated. This is an indication that the volleyball community is aware of the reporting system and is active in launching complaints when appropriate.

“Volleyball Canada shares its updated list of sanctioned members, including historical cases, with its partners, and we have long called for this National Registry that is vetted and meets Canadian privacy standards,” said Eckert. “While there is still much work to do in the area of safe sport, we are pleased with this additional measure that will help our participants enjoy the sport they love in a safe environment.”
