It's been a long time coming! Documentary Tickets on Sale Now!
It’s been a Long Time Coming Documentary March 29th
We are very pleased to announce a former Lightning player, Emma Beckett has released a documentary about women in hockey and the growth of the game. Tickets for the event are on sale now!
From Emma Beckett:
So happy to announce we’re holding a Collingwood premiere of “It’s Been a Long Time Coming” in support of my former hockey association Collingwood Girls Hockey Association!
My years playing for and volunteering with the Collingwood Lightning changed the game of hockey for me. Growing up playing hockey in a male dominated league as sometimes the only girl on my team, the coaches, teammates and CGHA volunteers welcomed me with open arms and provided me with a second family I didn’t know I needed.
As a way to give back to my incredible former hockey community, the majority of ticket sales will be donated to an aspiring female hockey player in need of financial support. Whether you’re a current Lightning player or have been interested in joining, please email me at emma.may.beckett@gmail.com with a statement on what hockey means to you and why you would benefit from this donation. Rylee and I will then choose a recipient based on the submissions.
Tickets can be purchased here:
I encourage attendees to wear their hockey jerseys to the premieres. We hope to see you there!
