One clear takeaway: Africa’s next growth story is about building ecosystems, not simply importing products.

That’s where GlaKam comes in — connecting youth development, infrastructure, tourism, media, business and investment to create a sustainable pathway for hockey in Africa.

From Minnesota to the continent, we’re building the relationships and platforms that can turn participation into an African hockey economy.

Talent is universal. Access isn’t.

From Minnesota to Africa — Equipment With a Purpose

A jersey with a story. 💚

We are incredibly grateful for equipment made available through the Minnesota Wild’s hockey equipment drive and for the opportunity to extend the impact of Minnesota’s hockey community beyond Minnesota.

Equipment made available through the Minnesota Wild’s equipment drive can travel far beyond Minnesota. In the hands of young athletes and emerging hockey communities across Africa, it helps remove one of the biggest barriers to entering the game: access to equipment.

GlaKam is proud to help carry that spirit of Minnesota hockey to Africa; putting equipment into the hands of players and communities working to grow the game.

From the State of Hockey to the next generation of African hockey players, thank you for believing in what this game can make possible.

A special thank you to Cedric Oronje and the K24 team for the conversation and for helping spotlight the growth of hockey in Kenya and across Africa. We were also glad to present Cedric with a Minnesota Wild jersey as a small symbol of the Minnesota to Kenya hockey connection we are building.
