The Weekly Albertan

Last year my team went to play a tournament in Halifax. This was my first time on the East coast of Canada and I was surprised at the beauty of the city. I love the ocean so being beside one is always nice! I barely remember how much success my team had at the tournament but I definitely remember the trip as a great time to grow with my team and to see some beautiful sights.

This year my team went to Vancouver during the Thanksgiving weekend and played a tournament against other B.C. colleges.  We left the tournament undefeated so we definitely stayed focused on basketball. On our downtime we went shopping on Robson Street and were able to walk along the ocean at Stanley Park. For a few girls on my team this was the first time they stepped into an ocean so that was pretty cool to see!

As an athlete my best memories are playing basketball in new places. It is always so interesting to see the sights of a new city, but also play players from different areas. There is always some kind of different style of play to every new place you go.
