Ali H.
Field Hockey Tour, 2024

This summer’s Beyond Sports tour in Spain was absolutely incredible. Playing field hockey in such a beautiful place was a dream come true. Having an opportunity to connect with players from around the world was unforgettable. I loved every moment of it! I also made some amazing friends and got to do so many fun activities outside of playing hockey. It was truly an experience I’ll never forget.
