Grow the Game Day, Seattle!

Edmonds, WA – USA Ball Hockey partnered up with Knapper, Knapper USA, 2and10 Apparel and brought some new friends along for a Pacific Northwest version of “Grow the Game Day.” USABH Women’s Development Director, Liz Crouthamel, took her gear out west to meet our partner, Sal Ippolito and Emerald City Ball Hockey, who helped to put on an amazing show for the kids in the Greater Seattle area.

We want to show our gratitude and would like to thank everyone who made USABH Grow the Game Day Seattle an amazing community event in celebration of all things hockey, starting with our sponsor, Knapper who made sure that every player left with a free stick and hockey ball.

We thank the Seattle Kraken Power Play program, PWHL’s Seattle Torrent, and our new best friend, Buoy, for providing equipment, giveaways, and smiles that helped to illuminate the gym.

Thank you to all the coaches, Bob and Trampus, along with our parent volunteers, Piper, Katie, Bec, Lisa, and Nolan. One more huge shoutout to Coach Salvatore and his family at Emerald City Ball Hockey.

None of this would have been possible without the families who chose hockey on this great day. We look forward to the future of ball hockey in the Greater Seattle area and the entire Pacific Northwest. If you’re in the region, and would love to play this accessible sport, check in with Emerald City Ball Hockey often as they launch their first ever league for children of all ages this coming winter.
