“When I went into the changeroom, I saw girls from all over the world. That was kind of relieving because I didn’t feel like an outsider. I was like, ‘Oh, I belong with them.’ We were all beginners.”
“I didn’t know how happy hockey would make me when I [first] tried it. I feel like it’s one of the most positive things that ever happened to me.”
