Nous avons eu le grand plaisir d’accueillir l’honorable Adam van Koeverden, député et secrétaire d’État aux Sports, l’honorable Marnie McBean, sénatrice, ainsi que l’honorable Peter Fonseca MP, député, lors de la séance Junior GameChangers de notre initiative PotentiELLE, tenue hier soir!

Animée par la Dre Hayley Wickenheiser, cette riche conversation a permis à ces leaders et athlètes olympiques de réfléchir aux nombreuses compétences que le sport permet de développer et qui sont utiles bien au-delà de la compétition. La discussion a notamment porté sur le passage du sport de haut niveau à des fonctions de leadership au Parlement, sur l’apport de l’esprit d’équipe et de la résilience dans l’exercice de fonctions publiques, ainsi que sur l’importance de la participation des filles au sport, au Canada comme ailleurs dans le monde.

La période de questions a permis aux membres du programme Junior GameChangers de poser des questions réfléchies et de recevoir des conseils pour renforcer leur propre leadership au sein de leur équipe, de leur école et de leur communauté.

We were delighted to welcome the Honourable Adam van Koeverden, MP and Secretary of State for Sport, the Honourable Marnie McBean, Senator, and the Honourable Peter Fonseca MP, to last night’s FuelHER Junior GameChangers Session!

Moderated by Dr. Hayley Wickenheiser, the brilliant conversation saw each leader and Olympian reflect on how sport builds skills that transcend competition. It touched on the experience of moving from elite sport to parliamentary leadership, how teamwork and resilience translate into public service and why girls’ participation in sport matters in Canada and around the world.

A Q&A period with thoughtful questions from our inspiring group of Junior GameChangers featured insights and advice to fuel their leadership in their own teams, schools and communities!

What we learn on the rink shapes us beyond it.

Hayley Wickenheiser, a four-time Olympic gold medalist, physician and powerful advocate for women and girls, reflects on how sport builds confidence and resilience — and the importance of making sure everyone around the world has a chance to play.

From confidence to resilience, sport gives girls around the world so much beyond the pitch, rink or field! ❤️

When the Ukrainian Wings came to , it was about more than hockey.

For a group of girls living through war, it was a chance to play, connect and sleep without fear. It was also a powerful reminder of what safety can mean in a child's life.

Four-time Olympic gold medalist Hayley Wickenheiser reflects on that experience and the need for strong global citizenship in a changing world.

FuelHER was built on the idea that sport can open the door to bigger conversations about leadership, resilience and the kind of world girls deserve to grow up in.

The game is just the beginning.

Today marks the International Day of Play and the start of the FIFA World Cup! 🤩⚽

Celebrated globally, both moments show how sport helps people come together, express themselves and build lifelong skills. 🌍

They also highlight the barriers millions face before they have a chance to step on the pitch. 🚧

For girls around the world, who often face the greatest barriers, this can look like a lack of access to nutritious food, clean water or safe spaces. 🍽️

During our time at Her Sports Fest, we asked young athletes why they play. Here’s what they said ❤️

“I play sports to have dedicated me time! It clears my head and let’s me be my best self.”

“I play sports to connect with the community and engage with others in marginalized communities.”

Be sure to keep up with for the full series!
