What is Youth Athlete of the Year?
Learn MoreLily loves the competitiveness and learning new skills and improving. She loves being a part of a team that works hard together and achieves a goal. Lily pushes herself each and every time she plays a sport and truly loves when she sees improvement in her game.
Lily is inspired by her older brother. She watched her older brother for so many years in every activity and joined most things because she watched him and saw the fun he was having. Lily and her brother spend hours outside practicing new skills and Lily is always asks her brother to help her improve something whether it is shooting a hockey puck or kicking a soccer ball.
Lilys proudest moment is her recent win in a rowing competition called the St. John's royal regatta. Lily took on rowing in June never stepping foot in a boat. After 2 months of training, her and 5 other girls took home the gold in their first ever race. Her coxswain said lily is a fire cracker who gives 100% all the time!
