What is Youth Athlete of the Year?
Learn MoreAiden loves being on the ice, competing, having fun, and being part of a team. Hockey is where he feels happy most confident, and it gives him a place to challenge himself every time he steps onto the rink. He enjoys pushing his skills further, learning from each practice and game, and working hard to keep improving. Being part of a team also means a lot to him, as he values the friendships, support, and shared effort that come with playing together toward a common goal.
