We present you a series of short interviews called #NewStarsBorn with media ambassadors!

They talk about their team’s preparations, their goals and more!

Our next guest is an athlete from Canada, Elly Peters.

What are your goals for the championship?

Our goals for the championship are to really focus on playing and growing as a team by taking it one game at a time. We want to enjoy our time in Poland and utilize this as an opportunity to gain valuable experience on the international stage.

How does your preparation for the championship look like?

Our team will be preparing for the championship by holding a team training camp in Canada as well as a camp in Poland prior to the tournament. We are also playing with our individual clubs throughout the summer along with following a workout and nutrition program.

How would you rate your team preparing fo the championship?

Our team has lots of support from our GM and coaches. They have given us the tools and guidance needed for myself and my teammates to arrive at the championships well prepared and ready to complete.

What comes to your mind when you think about Poland?

The food – perogies and polish sausage! But honestly, we are looking forward to learning about our surroundings and the culture when we visit Poland in August!

Good luck Canada and see you in Katowice!
