Kangiqsujuaq Hockey Tournament

In February Kangiqsujuaq held a mens hockey tournament. It was a friendly tournament, involving three teams from here and one team from neighboring village Salluit.

Neil and his team played hard for three days straight.
Go #17!!

Lydia Kristensen cheering on her father, who was on Neil's team. I teach her older brother and sister.

Two of my students, Qipitaq and Alasie. Best friends.

Alasie and I. She has really taken a liking to me, and always wants to talk and learn more about Neil and I.

Two little girls wanted to have their picture taken too!

Neil was the tallest guy on the team, so I never had a hard time spotting him on the ice.


Neil's team won gold!
