“I think it’s important for the ringette players in the North to get a tournament in their area,” Erickson explained. “Being from the North and having to travel a crazy amount, we go to Vancouver, we go to Kelowna, we go to Vernon, we got to Terrace and the kids are always so tired from travelling I would like them to have the chance to sleep in their own beds and get up fresh and come to the rink to play.
“Family was very important to mom, the community and bringing everyone together was important,” Hoffman-Baarts said. “And I think one of the biggest things for my mom when it comes to ringette was finding something for pre-teens and teens to do – focusing on females – and that kind of got her going because I am one of four kids and the only one to play ringette was Marina, the youngest, and mom got a lot of enjoyment out of it.
