We’re excited to feature Shirlane this week! Take a look below to see what Shirlane has shared with our community:
On January 25 at 5:00 PM at the Killarney Community Centre, we had the incredible opportunity to meet Christine Sinclair, an Olympic gold medalist, during our game. She arrived with her team, personally introduced herself to each of us, and even spent time coaching and interacting with the players. It was truly an unforgettable experience to be guided by someone who is not only a well-known athlete in Canada but also internationally recognized.
I was especially amazed by how friendly and approachable she was. We had the chance to take photos and videos with her and her team, which made the experience even more memorable. Everyone felt excited and inspired knowing that such a respected and accomplished athlete took the time to visit us.
After the session, she generously gave out small giveaways, including drawstring backpacks with mini soccer balls, stickers, and t-shirts. It was also meaningful to know that this was the first time Christine Sinclair witnessed Power Soccer, making the visit even more special for our team.
