They have a well done 30 min Documentary on the story of the men on Canada’s National Sledge hockey team and their quest to be the dominant force in this fast-paced game begins long before Selection Camp takes place in a bedroom community of Ottawa. It begins, for some, at birth – for others just nine years ago.
Synopsis: It is the story of a remarkable team and even more remarkable men! They are as different as the disabilities that brought them together as a team. Each man, whether born with a disability, or come to it by accident, has learned to live through adversity. They joke amongst themselves about separating the “amps” and the “wheelies” into separate dressing rooms. But one thing is certain; they have bonded together into a unique and sometimes dysfunctional family with a single purpose – to be World Champions in their chosen sport of Ice Sledge Hockey.
