Due to the continuing pandemic, Field Hockey Canada did not hold open trials, rather drew from the existing pool of indoor national team athletes. According to Adam Janssen, Field Hockey Canada’s High Performance Director, the indoor program is essential to FHC’s player development pathway and offers a fantastic playing opportunity. The CanAm series is an excellent fit to give our national team athletes high-level competitive games, close to home.

USA HOCKEY EVENT INFORMATION

“Indoor hockey is a great development tool for our outdoor national programs, but it is also a great game in our sport community. Fast-moving, highly skilled and with lots of goals and thrills,” Janssen said. “Indoor forms an essential part of our player development pathway and so it is fantastic to have this annual [CAN AM] series set up.”

Susan Ahrens, CEO of Field Hockey Canada said it’s fantastic to see all the events and series returning after two years of challenging traveling and hosting conditions. She is thankful to everyone who dedicates time and energy to the indoor program.

“With a whole-scale return to sport on the cards in 2022 as part of our recovery from the pandemic, I am delighted to see this indoor series set up in conjunction with our colleagues and friends in the USA,” Ahrens said. “Indoor is really representative of our community from coast to coast. I’m delighted to see representation from Alberta, Quebec and Ontario in these teams and offer my congratulations to all. I’d also like to thank the wonderful staff, volunteers, parents and supports who make this all possible.”
