Shoes! (and winter update)

After a long (rather mild) winter, it's finally time to get things started up for the summer season! We've been training at the new indoor facility at Downsview Park and hitting the weights at our gym, ATP. 

Unfortunately, I sprained my ankle a few weeks ago, so I had to take some time off to let it heal. Jamie had an opportunity to play in the first tournament of the year, which took place in the Cayman Islands. She went with another defender from team Canada and they did an awesome job coming in 5th place! Now that I am able to play on my ankle again, we are back in training mode for our next few upcoming tournaments. 

To kick things off, we'll be leaving for a NORCECA event in the Dominican Republic, followed by a few FIVB world tour stops in Brazil and China. I'm really excited to get out into competition phase. Jamie and I are feeling strong. 

Over the winter, we explored some sponsorship opportunities, and we're proud to announce that we have a team shoe! PAEZ is an awesome company that makes these stylish and comfortable shoes. Jamie and I picked this style, the "Panama Rojo", with its Canadian colours to represent our team. If you like them, let us know and we will order your size. They are $50 and 70% of the proceeds go directly to helping us reach our Olympic dream.

Please email Jamie or I if you would like to support us by purchasing a pair! Thanks!
