A Northern hockey story on a national stage.

Today, The Globe and Mail published “Puck Drop on the Pond” as part of their Underexposed series, highlighting the Polar Pond Hockey tournament in Hay River, Northwest Territories. The story captures the volunteers, players, families, and community spirit that come together each year to transform the frozen river into a gathering place built around hockey, connection, and Northern tradition.

The feature shines a light on the importance of community sport in the North and the many people behind the scenes who help make these events possible. The story will also appear in print in next Monday’s edition of The Globe and Mail.
