Testimonial from our Athlete Ambassador, Kristyn Collins. She did a Take the Shot (Paris Edition) Presentation to a High School in Edmonton: "I really enjoyed talking to the students and telling them about boccia and how it is played. I enjoyed talking to them about things like how I prepare for tournaments, places I have travelled to, and my accomplishments. I think they were surprised to learn that boccia is a Paralympic sport. Hopefully, by doing these presentations we will help spread the word about boccia so more people can become involved in the sport. My favorite moment of the presentation was when I showed the students my medals!"

Voici le témoignage de notre athlète ambassadrice Kristyn Collins. Elle a fait une présentation À toi de jour (Édition Paris) dans une école secondaire à Edmonton : « J'ai vraiment apprécié parler aux étudiant(e)s et leur parler du boccia et de comment le sport se joue. J'ai aimé leur parler de choses comme comment je me prépare pour les tournois, les endroits où je suis allée et mes accomplissements. Je pense qu'ils ont été surpris d'apprendre que le boccia est un sport paralympique. Espérons qu'en faisant ces présentations, nous aiderons à faire connaître le boccia afin que plus de gens puissent s'impliquer dans ce sport. Mon moment préféré de la présentation a été quand j'ai montré aux étudiant(e)s mes médailles! »
