Team SK Blog #8 ~ Scotties Tournament of Hearts

Day 1 of championship round complete!
What a great day! Every team in the Championship Round deserves to be here and is capable of winning the national championship. It is and will be a battle! Our team stepped up their game today. They have been building skills and confidence all week and are playing fantastic. They are staying relaxed and focused. They are keeping their routines and staying relaxed on and off the ice. They are always smiling and laughing.

We had two great games today with big shots made by every player to contribute to our victories. We knew that every game is going to be challenging but they are excited for the opportunity. I can’t say enough about how this team supports each other through the ups and downs of each game. It is incredible how they work as one unit.
