Gabriel loves rugby for the rush—the open-field sprints, bone-crunching tackles, and the brotherhood that feels like family. He thrives on the strategy, the grit, and the chance to push past limits. And while football gave him power and precision, rugby gives him freedom—no pads, no breaks, just pure, nonstop action. For Gabe, it’s not just a game—it’s the ultimate test of heart, strength, and speed.
Gabriel is driven by his family’s unwavering support, his coaches’ push for greatness, and his teammates’ trust and brotherhood. They’ve taught him that it’s not just about winning—it’s about heart, hard work, and the people who stand with you on and off the field.
My proudest moment with Gabriel isn’t just one game—it’s who he is through them all. Whether earning a spot at a Rugby Canada ID session, battling hard at the Tropical 7s, or quietly helping a teammate when no one’s watching, his humility and kindness shine brightest. I’m proud because he plays with heart, respects the game, and treats people well—on and off the field.
