Olympic medalist makes stop in P.A.
A group of young girls from the Prince Albert area had a unique opportunity to meet one of Canada’s best hockey players this week.
Colleen Sostorics, 36, was the guest coach Tuesday, Aug. 23 during the Northern Female Hockey Program camp.
Sostorics who has three Olympic gold medals with Team Canada (2002, 2006, 2010), talked to the girls about strategy, training, and also told her audience members to not give up on their dreams.
“Hopefully I’m lighting a fire in them but it sort of rekindles my fire. Obviously I won’t be playing at the elite level anymore but it rekindles my fire for coaching and for why we want to give back to the game,” she said.
