The Great One Doing Great Things For The Sport
The greatest player of all time, Wayne Gretzky, is looking to make the sport of hockey, more easily accessible financially.
The Northlandhockey website had a news release on explaining how to make this goal achievable.
Gretzky had this to say:
I hope this will assist parents in finding an economical way for all boys and girls to achieve their dreams
Amanda Krupa, a writer for the Medium.com website, has this to say on the average cost for parents in investing their children to play the sport.
With costs averaging around $7,000 a year and souring to as much as $20,000 a year for some leagues, the sport, unfortunately, isn't accessible to many. The expenses of travel hockey alone can cost a family $2,000-$3,000 a year.
Let's hope more families will be able to get their children involved in the sport.
