no matter where you are from, at the event, you represenet the country where you reside in, regardless if you are a citizen or not.

the same is tru for the other countries participating, not all are from the country they are representing.

Thanks Hockey Player for answering my sincere questions as they were intended! Good to hear about what has been achieved by both Bermudians and non-Bermudians working together to further sport to the benefit of all!

abc123 – take a chill pill mate, no one is hating on anyone! As ball hockey is not a traditional Bermuda sport I was simply inquiring about the uptake by/and involvement of Bermudians in the sport! I made no comment about their success or made any comparison to football, cricket or any other sport on the Island. As you don’t know me or what sports I play I am not sure how you’re able to come to conclusions about what I have contributed to sport on-Island.

I think some ‘time in the box/sin bin’ for an egregious post may be in order Bernews ; ) !

I believe there are at least 4 Bermudians on the team and several spouses of Bermudians as well. There are also many Bermudians who play in the Bermuda Ball Hockey League who are not on the national team.

If you want to see what these guys have done for the island, take a look at the great facility they built on North Shore which is used by Bermudians, non-Bermudians, adults and kids. This was a direct result of their efforts and is a top notch facility.

Why u hating on these guys?????????

We don’t see you out there competing in any sports. If you do, please tell us what accomplishments you have received lately.

They are obviously doing better than Bermuda’s football, cricket, etc. etc. teams

GET A LIFE!

Sorry need to ask how many Bermudians actually play on this team??

I appreciate its a good recreational sport for all the Canadian/American ice hockey players on Island (and from the results it sounds like they are pretty good) but what genuine interest do Bermudians have in the sport?
