A Calgary man is being honoured by the Prime Minister for his work with youth hockey in Costa Rica.
For the past fourteen years, Calgarian Bruce Callow has been in Costa Rica coaching hockey, so that kids there could enjoy Canada’s “national past-time.”
He tells The Calgary Sun, “hockey is spreading to a lot of non-traditional areas like Florida Mexico and even South America.”
The National Hockey League helps with a lot of the costs associated with the program .
The organization recently sent 34 sets of new equipment, including skates, duffel bags and helmets.
