Started in Sweden in the early ’60s—about 20 years after IKEA—sledge hockey was created for people who want to play hockey despite disabilities. The sport’s growing in Nova Scotia, with four current programs, two more on the way and Bridgewater recently hosting the World Sledge Hockey Challenge. While at the international level eligible athletes must have a permanent impairment in the lower part of the body that makes ordinary skating impossible, those who are able bodied can still play at the recreational level. “Once anybody puts their body in a sledge,” says Hockey Nova Scotia executive director Darren Cossar, “everybody’s on the same playing field.”

Blades Sledge blades are slightly shorter than standard hockey skates. Beginners start with blades wide apart to give better balance. At the national and Paralympic level, blades are virtually touching for greater agility.
Bucket The seat, made of plastic, rests on the frame above the blades. Features seatbelts to keep athlete in the bucket. Players at the national level get the body modified to their liking.

Frame Made of a combination of aluminium or steel and plastic. Comes in small, medium and large sizes, all three of which are adjustable, to allow for a custom length depending on disability.
Back of frame A bracket at the back of the frame allows for the instillation of a push handle. This is helpful for beginners, but also advanced players with more limiting disabilities such as severe cerebral palsy. Sometimes an athlete can’t push the sledge, but can still shoot the puck. “It’s a pretty inclusive sport,” says Cossar. “The individuals involved with it make it work.”
Toe A metal or plastic balancing tool at the front. Players stickhandle by passing the puck back and forth underneath the sledge, so it has to be raised off the ice.

Sticks Each sledge comes with a left and right stick equipped with a blade on one end and a metal pick on the other. The picks dig into the ice and allow the player to push off as they propel around the ice. Most players are ambidextrous, stick-handling and shooting the puck with either stick. “Sticks are used like a canoe. You lose a stick, you’re in trouble on the ice,” says Cossar.

World Sledge Hockey Challenge deemed over-the-top successful

Full to the rafters, the Clearwater Seafoods Arena is an impressive sight during the Canada-U.S. preliminary sledge hockey game, won by Team Canada 3-2 in a shootout. (Matthew Murnaghan/Hockey Canada )

The recent World Sledge Hockey Challenge (WSHC) in Lunenburg County produced many wow moments as legions of South Shore fans of stand-up hockey gained an appreciation for this exciting sit-down sport.
Players on the national teams from Canada, U.S., Russia and Korea showcased their exceptional skills, speed, determination, agility and superior fitness levels. All games were exciting to watch, regardless of the scores.
The nail-biting started way back in Canada’s second preliminary-round game when the home side scored with 5:04 remaining in the third period, then added an empty-netter to edge a determined Team Korea 2-0.
The game featured a golden moment of sportsmanship. Shortly after assisting on what turned out to be Team Canada’s winning goal, defenceman Rob Armstrong lost a stick. It was beyond his reach and he was about to return to the bench when he heard someone shout something. He looked back to see Team Korea captain Jong-Kyung Lee sliding the stick to him before joining teammates in their rush up the ice.
Asked in an interview why he performed this classy gesture, particularly during the closing minutes of such a tight game, Lee told this reporter he did it out of respect for his opponent. After all, hockey is just a game, he said. One of five military veterans on Team Korea, Lee, 42, is 23 years older than Armstrong.
Dr. Hyongjun Choi, the chair of physical education at Korea’s Dankook University, travelled with Team Korea. He said Lee’s gesture was not unusual to him, as showing respect is part of the Korean culture. He said Lee possesses good character on and off the ice, and was a popular choice for team captain.
“When the team was struggling to be competitive against much better players from other countries, Lee encouraged his teammates, and showed them how to improve their skills,” said Choi.
Armstrong was surprised, even shocked, that an opponent would assist him at a crucial part of a tight game.
“I thanked him. Instead of returning to our bench, I was able to get back into the play right away,” said Armstrong. “Looking back at it after the game, I thought it was definitely a classy move. Those guys travel for many hours to get here to play a game we all love. I will always remember Lee for his kind gesture.”
This story focuses on the people and impacts of the WSHC, but the scores should be reviewed as well.
So, everyone is likely aware that Team USA topped Team Canada 3-2 in overtime to win the gold medal. An injury-plagued Team Korea won its first-ever game in tournament history, beating Russia 4-2 for bronze.
Connor Hirtle performed the ceremonial puck drop at the gold medal game. Hirtle, who was paralyzed in a diving accident last summer, received a standing ovation, while players from both teams tapped their sticks.
The U.S. reached the final by edging Russia 2-1 in a semi-final game. Canada dominated an under-manned Korea squad 10-0 in the other semi. Canada went undefeated in the preliminary round, beating Russia 5-1, Korea 2-0, and the U.S. 3-2 in a thrilling shootout in the sold-out Clearwater Seafoods Arena.
Team USA is the reigning world and Paralympic Games champion, and its shootout loss to Canada was its first defeat since March, 2014.
The seven-day international event was, by all accounts, over-the-top successful, hopefully a springboard from which to attract many more high-level events to the Lunenburg County Lifestyle Centre (LCLC), perhaps even a return visit by the Canadian sledge team for another tournament or training camp.
During the WSHC you would have been hard-pressed to find a single soul — players, team executives, visitors and locals — who didn’t positively gush over this community’s shining-star recreation complex and library.
And a shout-out should go to members of Hockey Canada’s on-site management team. They were consummate professionals who worked seamlessly with the host committee and volunteers to satisfy the needs of the four teams and the more than 10,000 spectators.
A stickler for detail and efficiency, Dave Hysen, Hockey Canada manager of events and properties, said he was happy with the host organizing committee’s eager involvement, both before and during the tournament.
“When they were granted hosting rights, they hit the ground running, and made our job at Hockey Canada much easier to present this event to the fine people of Bridgewater and Lunenburg County,” he said.
“Our decision to come to this community was more than validated. The players and team officials enjoyed their experience, the facility and the famous Nova Scotia hospitality, and they would be happy to come back.”
Hysen said Team Canada members were amazed by the fan support. “Our guys have seen the game of sledge hockey grow around the world, but they were totally blown away by the amazing support from fans here.”
Now that the dust of success has settled somewhat, and members of the four national teams have returned safely to their homes, it might be appropriate to acknowledge those who gave up their regular daily routines to ensure the WSHC ran smoothly from bold what-if idea stage to emotional goodbye hugs and high-fives.
Success was achieved through the vision of Events Lunenburg County, creation of a compelling 77-page bid document, support of local, provincial and federal governments, efficient planning and execution by the host organizing committee, more than 30 generous local sponsors, and the can-do attitude of 100-plus volunteers.
Naming names is tricky, because when it comes to lists, invariably people and/or organizations are inadvertently omitted. The organizing committee will undoubtedly devise a fitting tribute to all contributors.
The buzz around Lunenburg County was all sledge hockey, all the time. It was discussed in glowing terms everywhere. People who hadn’t even heard of sledge hockey became instant fans, oohing and aahing at the game’s pace, intensity, physicality, playmaking and booming shots. Oh, yeah, it was all that and much more.
Many spectators filing out after the Canada-U.S. shootout thriller remarked it was the best hockey they had ever seen, period. Other folks within earshot of the best-ever remarks nodded their heads approvingly.
Bernice Theriault wrote the bid document, which included letters of support from area municipalities and businesses, the extent of participation by students of all ages, and the fact the rink was built to accommodate sledge hockey, complete with plexiglass in front of the player benches and penalty boxes to allow players to watch the action while sitting on their sledges — apparently a major selling point with Hockey Canada.
“We also included in our document that we were chosen to host the Nova Scotia 55+ Games in 2017,” said Theriault. “Hosting a world-class event in Nova Scotia doesn’t happen every day. Everyone should be proud of what we accomplished with the World Sledge Hockey Challenge. Stay tuned, there’s more to come.”
MODL Councillor Carolyn Bolivar-Getson served on the host committee as volunteer co-ordinator. She said the majority of the volunteers live in Lunenburg County, but others came from Halifax, Annapolis Valley and Queens. They willingly did virtually everything that needed to be done before, during and after the event.
Bolivar-Getson said an economic-impact study is in the works, but results won’t be known for a few months. The provincial government provided funding. Meanwhile, she predicts the impact will be significant.
“Whenever there are people moving around in your community, there’s an economic benefit,” she said. “This event attracted people from all over the province and beyond. They stayed in our hotels, ate in our restaurants, shopped in our stores and purchased fuel for vehicles. They spent money everywhere.”
Hockey Canada reported after the gold medal game that “all proceeds from the WSHC will be reinvested into the local and provincial community to benefit the growth of hockey, and of sledge hockey in particular. The event’s legacy includes more than $21,000 targeted for Lunenburg County.”
The next WSHC will be held Dec. 4 to 10 in Charlottetown, PEI. For more details on sledge hockey visit HockeyCanada.ca/WSHC, or follow via social media at Facebook.comHCSledge or Twitter.com/HC_Sledge.
Hosting the World Sledge Hockey Challenge definitely earned a gold medal for Lunenburg County.

Canada’s sledge hockey players offer profiles in courage

Peter Simpson

January 27, 2016- 10:13am

Most spectators who attended the World Sledge Hockey Challenge at the Clearwater Seafoods Arena in the Lunenburg County Lifestyle Centre didn’t have an opportunity to meet the athletes from the four competing nations.
That’s a shame because they would have met some outstanding young men who overcame serious challenges to achieve success in their personal lives and as teammates at an elite level of sport.
The 17 players on Team Canada, for example, epitomize perseverance, purpose and professionalism — on and off the ice. And you can throw courage in that mix for good measure.
It was reported in the Breaker last week that Team Canada travelled to Forest Heights Community School to participate in Changing Minds, Changing Lives, a program initiated by the Canadian Paralympic Committee to stress the importance of physical activity in the lives of every Canadian.
A tight filing deadline, a curse to all journalists, prevented a more detailed account of proceedings.
Originally only three Team Canada players were supposed to attend the event, but team captain Greg Westlake said the players decided that wasn’t going to happen. “We said nope, that’s not how we do it in Canada. We are a team, we do everything together, so here we are, as a team.”
Born in North Vancouver, B.C., Westlake, a pleasant, engaging fellow, told an overflow crowd of students in the school gymnasium that at 18 months old he became a double below-knee amputee.
“I didn’t really go through much adversity growing up because not having feet was all I knew,” he said. “When I made Team Canada I met guys who had beaten cancer, survived bad accidents, or lost a leg serving our country. I consider all my teammates to be heroes of mine. I am so fortunate to be on a team with them, and be around them every day.”
A member of the national team since 2003, Westlake said he feels at home in Nova Scotia. “My sister went to Dalhousie, my brother went to Acadia, and I did three sledge hockey camps at Acadia. I love it here.”
An award-winning coach with an impressive resume, Team Canada head coach Ken Babey told the students the highlight of his career is working with these athletes in a fast-paced, high-skill game.
“Every day we are getting better, achieving our targets. These guys are great examples of achievers.”
Westlake said the tournament in Italy last month, where Team Canada won gold, was a good team builder. “Winning together brings you together. Getting used to winning and holding up a trophy is a feeling that is tough to describe. You get a taste, and you want it again and again. It’s fun.”
Performing at a high level is normal for Westlake. An avid golfer, he recorded a hole in one at 15. He also owns two land-speed records as the driver of the world’s fastest handbike, the Avos Arrow.
Alternate captains Steve Arsenault and Tyler “The Franchise” McGregor also spoke to the students.
Arsenault, born in Hamilton, Ontario, experienced a rapid growth spurt at 10, weakening his femur and pelvis. Complications from surgery caused the femur to lose its spherical shape and strength.
Away from the rink, Arsenault works as a personal trainer, encouraging people to take steps to remain healthy as they age. “Fitness is everything, and obesity is a growing concern,” he said. “Exercise can reduce the risk of stroke, heart attack and other diseases, and will prolong your life.”
Arsenault also told the students that adopting a healthy lifestyle early in life is key.
“I’m a new dad, so it’s important to show my kids that being part of this team and an active lifestyle can motivate them to develop in a healthy manner and chase their own dreams one day,” he said.
Doctors amputated McGregor’s leg after he was diagnosed with cancer. He is a volunteer with the Make-A-Wish Foundation. He said joining Team Canada was a key part of his maturation process.
“The qualities, values and skills you learn by being part of this team are incredible,” said McGregor, who was born in London, Ontario. “I’ve learned a lot about respect and professionalism. We all have lives outside of sport, and those qualities are certainly transferable to every other aspect of life.”
Forest Heights principal Miles Page said in an interview that he, teachers and students appreciated Team Canada’s visit to the Chester-area school. They learned valuable lessons from coach Babey and his players.
“It was a great platform to promote perseverance. If you persevere, you can overcome challenges. That message translates to students who don’t necessarily have a disability but struggle with their academics,” he said.
Watching Team Canada players showcase their skills on the ice and their maturity off the ice is awe-inspiring. The fact these 17 elite athletes transformed the following challenges into opportunity is truly an inspiration of the highest order:
- Spina bifida (two athletes)
- Below-knee leg amputation after motor vehicle accident (two athletes)
- Above-knee leg amputation after motor vehicle accident
- Cerebral palsy
- Avascular nercosis of femur
- Spinal cord injury caused by virus
- Loss of mobility in leg following cliff-jumping accident
- Born with sacral agenesis
- Spinal cord injury after being checked from behind in stand-up hockey game
- Leg amputated due to bone cancer
- Ewing’s sarcoma
- Double below-knee amputee at 18 months old
- Damage to nerves, muscles and ligaments caused drop foot
- Above-knee leg amputation after cancer diagnosis
- Above-knee leg amputation after driving over improvised explosive device in Afghanistan.
All Canadians should be very proud of these fine young men and how they have fully embraced life.

Fans look to sledge hockey players as role models

Peter Simpson

January 27, 2016- 10:11am

Nicole Durand, left, and Nicole McDonald have both played sledge hockey for 10 years and are huge fans of Team Canada. They attended most of the games at the recent World Sledge Hockey Challenge, held in the Clearwater Seafoods Arena at the Lunenburg County Lifestyle Centre, Bridgewater. (Peter Simpson)

Move over Sidney Crosby and Nathan MacKinnon; there are two new hockey role models in town.
Greg Westlake and Billy Bridges, two engaging stars of the Team Canada sledge hockey team, don’t possess multi-million-dollar contracts and lucrative endorsement deals. But their superb puck skills and off-ice class and approachablity have gained them many loyal fans around the country.
Nicole McDonald, 23, and Nicole Durand, 25, have more in common than just their first names.
Both born with spina bifida, the two young women have been teammates on the Halifax Sledge Grinders sledge hockey team for 10 years, and they believe Westlake and Bridges are the cat’s meow.
A student in the social services program at the Nova Scotia Community College’s Waterfront campus, McDonald said she has loved hockey since she was old enough to stay up past 8 p.m. to watch the games on TV with her dad. She is a diehard Leafs fan, by the way.
“I always wanted to play hockey, but I couldn’t. When I was in high school I saw a sledge hockey game and thought, oh my gosh, I could actually play hockey now,” said McDonald. “I asked mom if I could play. She said no at first, telling me it would be really hard for me to move around the ice.”
McDonald said she finally convinced her mom. “It wasn’t hard to move around at all. I fell in love with it and I have been playing ever since. Being at the World Sledge Hockey Challenge is a dream come true. I’ve met some of the players, and actually played in a short game between periods.”
Durand, a teacher at Cavalier Drive Elementary School in Lower Sackville, has loved hockey since she started watching her younger brother play when he was a young child.
“I was his biggest fan, and I knew there had to be hockey for me out there in the world. I went to a stand-up hockey girls camp, with (double Olympic gold medalist hockey goalie) Sami Jo Small, who is Billy Bridge’s wife. Billy brought along some sledges, I tried playing and loved it,” said Durand.
“I went to Hockey Nova Scotia and said we need to form a team here. It started with the demos and we eventually started the Sledge Grinders team that Nicole and I play on together. We don’t play against each other, but occasionally in the scrimmage practice we go up against each other,” she said.
“One day we were in the hotel elevator with some Team Canada players. There were some kids who didn’t think anything about being in the same elevator as Billy Bridges and Greg Westlake, whereas I was in complete shock. I was as thrilled as if Sidney Crosby was in there with me,” said Durand.
When told about this superfan-like reaction, Team Canada captain Greg Westlake said he and his teammates appreciate hearing those comments.
“There’s no money in what we do. We are here because we love playing for Team Canada, and I’m glad we have such loyal fans. It makes us feel really good,” said Westlake.
“I’m so proud of how our guys interact with the public. We’re the most outgoing team in the world, and we talk to everybody we meet – in elevators, hotel lobbies, at the rink, wherever,” he said.
“Tell the girls to say hi next time. Maybe we’ll sit down and have a coffee and some conversation.”
During a later interview, Prince Edward Island native Billy Bridges said having such loyal followers means so much to the team. “We’ve come a long way from where no one knew about us,” he said.
“I feel so blessed to have the honour of being a role model to other individuals and it’s so much fun to have a positive impact on someone’s life, just like the sledge hockey veterans had an impact on my life. They were heroes to me,” he said
Bridges had high praise for the South Shore. “We watched a Lumberjacks game and we could tell this is a great hockey community, and it was really cool to be a part of that.”
The Lunenburg County Lifestyle Centre also received high marks from Bridges. “To be honest, I don’t know if we have skated on better ice this year. It’s phenomenal ice and you can tell they take the sport seriously. The bench area is perfect for sledge hockey as well. We are honoured that someone would respect us enough to design a rink to accommodate sledge hockey,” he said.
Bridges, who, like the two Nicoles, was born with spina bifida, had a positive reaction to the creation of a post-World Sledge Hockey Challenge legacy plan designed to help South Shore boys and girls develop sledge hockey skills. The program will be an affiliate of the South Shore Ice Sharks.
“I grew up in PEI, but started playing sledge hockey in Ontario. There were teams that started with one disabled kid and 15 of his able-bodied buddies. That’s the way it starts. People fall in love with the sport, no matter what your disability is, or even if you don’t have one. It’s fun to play, it’s a new challenge and it’s a good workout. It’s incredible there will be that legacy left behind,” said Bridges.
Bridges, who in addition to sledge hockey plays wheelchair basketball, wheelchair tennis, and throws the javelin and discus, said it’s important for people to be as active as they can.
“If there is a snowstorm, it’s really hard for me to get my wheelchair to the gym. Take advantage of physical activity or your disability will overcome you,” he said.
The day before the first preliminary game against Russia, Bridges was told his beloved grandfather had passed away in PEI. He stayed to play and said following the game that he was still emotional.
“I have friends and family in Nova Scotia, and it’s nice to have them close at this time,” he said.
Both Westlake and Bridges scored powerplay goals in Team Canada’s 5-1 opening preliminary game victory over Team Russia. Bridges also took a couple penalties. His grandpa would have been proud.
