Team Algonquin Nation Jr's

Miigwetc, Thank You, Merci to one of our team sponsors - Caisse Desjardins de la Haute-Gatineau! 🙏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

La Caisse Desjardins de la Haute-Gatineau est fière de contribuer à la hauteur de 6 500 $ au projet Algonquin Nation Junior Hockey Team.

Cette initiative unique rassemble de jeunes joueurs talentueux provenant de l’ensemble du territoire algonquin afin de participer aux Championnats nationaux de hockey junior autochtone à Toronto. Cette toute première édition marque le début d’un parcours de développement à long terme pour la jeunesse algonquine, favorisant le dépassement de soi, le leadership, l’esprit d’équipe et la fierté culturelle.

Nous sommes heureux de soutenir un projet porteur qui ouvrira de nouvelles opportunités aux jeunes athlètes et contribuera à inspirer les générations futures.

Félicitations à tous les jeunes, entraîneurs et organisateurs impliqués dans cette belle aventure sportive!
