The Kindersley Sledge Hockey Club will once again host its annual tournament this weekend, welcoming both junior and intermediate teams. Local athletes are set to take the ice starting Friday, with games continuing throughout the weekend.
The event promises an exciting series of matchups as players of various age groups showcase their speed, teamwork, and skill in sledges rather than skates. Spectators are encouraged to attend and support the local teams, who have been preparing for several weeks.
Sledge hockey has continued to gain popularity in Kindersley and across the Prairies, offering an inclusive sport for athletes with mobility challenges. Events like this one highlight community spirit and raise awareness of adaptive sports.
“It’s always great to see players come together and the community show its support,” said one of the tournament organizers.
Organizers expect a full weekend of friendly competition, camaraderie, and celebration of athletic ability.
