Accessing Hockey: Learning to Play and Watch Canada’s Game
Hockey is one of Canada’s most culturally significant sports, but you’re not alone if you're still trying to figure out how to get into the game.
How can we all be included in Hockey? Grant Hardy took this question to his guests, and we hear from AMI-audio friends, Jacob Shymanski, Kelly MacDonald, and Jeff Ryman, about how the game is played and what the sport means to them. Plus, they provide words of encouragement for anyone looking to learn about hockey.
Canadian Athlete Aaron Prevost shares his experience playing Goaltender in Blind Hockey , as someone who is totally blind.
And Luca Demontis of Canadian Blind Hockey takes us through how hockey is being adapted for blind or partially sighted players, which is work in progress.
Whether you’re totally new to the sport, or a more experienced hockey lover, listen in to Grant’s conversations with players and fans to gain a new perspective on Canada’s game.
