Saulteaux Warriors to compete in Broomball World Championships
Eighteen years is a particularly long time to go between appearances in a best-on-best world championship tournament, but that’s exactly the position some of the Saulteaux Warriors find themselves in this fall.
The Warriors will compete in the 2016 World Broomball Championships in Regina from November 1-5. There are four players on this year’s roster that also played on the 1998 team that competed in Victoria.
“It’s been a long time since we’ve gone,” Sean Fauchon, goaltender for the Warriors, said. “We’re all super pumped to go. It’s going to be a great experience again.”
To those not familiar with broomball, it’s very similar to ice hockey.
