Not only did VNL in Calgary kick off with a stunning win by Team Canada, we were also honoured to have members of the community share their traditions and demonstrate dances on site. Thank you to Brown Bear Woman, a group that has deep local roots and strongly believes that education and understanding of Indigenous People is an important step towards reconciliation. You can read more about their story at brownbearwoman.ca A teepee will be pitched on July 1, which is also the next match day for Team Canada at the 7 Chiefs Sportsplex & Chief Jim Starlight Centre, Tsuut’ina Nation. 🙏🏻 to the Nation for welcoming Volleyball Canada and all the VNL visitors to their great facility. #NIHM2022 #powerofsport 📷 davehollandpics
