Twenty hockey players will represent Atlantic Canada at the 2023 National Women’s U18 Championship.
Six of them are from Nova Scotia.
They hail from Truro, Windsor, Fall River, Clark’s Harbour, Antigonish and New Glasgow.
The team roster was finalized following a summer camp at St. FX last month that brought 46 players together to showcase their skills.
