| What does it mean to Play in the Canada Cup?: |
The Canada Cup is the tournament I look most forward to each year because we get to play in front of a home town crowd. The support of the local area is very strong, and we can feel them behind us when we are playing. |

Being there when my nephew, Jaxton was born :] |
| What in your opinion make a team a “Champions”?: |
Never settling for anything other than each other's best, holding each, other accountable, being one, supporting each other during good times and bad, and having the ability to push through and overcome adversity. A team of Champions never gives up, plays with heart and leaves everything on the field each time they stop on the diamond. |
