THUNDER BAY — Female Grade 9 students from across Thunder Bay got the chance to try a variety of different sports on Tuesday at Lakehead University.
“One of those sports that I hadn’t tried before today was lacrosse. It had always seemed really fun but I never had a chance to do it. It was pretty difficult at first and I ended up shooting the ball way over the net on my first try, but I got used to it.” “It’s been awesome to everyone involved and having so much fun together. It kind of introduces girls to how important it is to be active and supporting of one another.”
“Any time that we get kids to try something that they haven’t experienced before, that’s important for all of us. It’s a huge thing for these young students to try these things and hopefully get involved in something that has physical and mental benefits going forward.” “Most of the girls we met today didn’t even know that we were around. It’s been great to advertise ourselves to them and hopefully we can get a few of the girls to join us and make our club a bit bigger.”
