Waterloo Warriors women’s volleyball assistant coach Amy Wilson-Hands, who is from Rainy River First Nations, led a week-long camp in Mishkeegogamang First Nation earlier this month.
MISHKEEGOGAMANG FIRST NATION – For Amy Wilson-Hands, the chance to hold volleyball camps in Indigenous communities is something she finds extremely important.
“It’s also important as I help to connect the communities with the Ontario Volleyball Association. We’ve been talking about giving an opportunity to an Indigenous athlete to attend our high performance centre and possibly be a part of Team Ontario in the future. “After that camp, another community reached out to her and asked ‘Hey, how did you get Amy and can we have her contact information? Things kind of exploded after that.”
