For the third time in the programs history, Balmoral Hall School hosted their Skate with the Pro’s Day.

On January 11, 2025 the Balmoral Female U18 Prep hockey team brought out their international boarding students, who come from all across the world, to get them geared up in hockey equipment and teach them the basics of the game. The event saw roughly 20 participants from China, Japan, Mexico and Ukraine, ranging from grade 6-12 students.

“This is an especially fun event for our 6 boarding hockey players who live in dorms with their international boarding friends. The boarding students get paired with a hockey player who brings them into our team dressing room and gets them ready in the player’s stall. We then take the girls on the ice and begin practice. They work on skating, stopping, turning, falling down, puck handling, shooting and of course celly’s!” said Balmoral Director og Hockey Sarah Zacharias. “One of our players from Japan said after the skate “Coach Zach, since we’re now certified Hockey Players, if you guys are ever short players we can come out and play!”. It’s always fun sharing one of Canada’s biggest passions with students from all over the world.”
