2024 Men’s Team Canada General Manager Announcement Canada Ball Hockey is pleased to announce Matthew Lui as General Manager of Men's Team Canada for the 2024 ISBHF World Championships. Matthew Lui was previously the Men’s Team Canada Assistant General Manager in 2022 where Canada won the Gold Medal. Team Canada ended a 15 year gold Medal drought bringing back Gold on Canadian soil. Prior to his Team Canada work, Matthew managed the 2017 and 2018 Edmonton BHC that won the Canada Ball Hockey National Championship, a first for Alberta. He also built up the Team Hong Kong program starting in 2013 and leading them to B Pool Gold in 2017. Matthew is currently the VP Men’s for Canada Ball Hockey and the President of Wild Rose Ball Hockey Association in Alberta.
Bob Beatty – Hall of Fame 2022 (Referee) Bob first joined the ball hockey officiating staff of the Kitchener-Waterloo Ball Hockey Referee’s Association in 1987. Immediately, Bob fell in love with the sport as it reminded him of the days of “Road Hockey” that he played as a child. In 1989 Bob was invited to his first Provincial Championship tournament that was held in Mississauga, Ontario. He was amazed at the level of play that was on display and the passion for officiating at the Provincial level was infectious. Bob began to officiate at the National level at the 1993 Canadian Ball Hockey Championships in Ottawa. Bob’s last officiated game at the National Championships occurred where it all began back in 1987 in Kitchener, Ontario at the 2017 National Junior’s. All together this covers a span of 30 years of officiating the great game of Ball Hockey. Bob has also been fortunate enough to be involved at the World Championship level. His first ISBHF tournament was in Zvolen, Slovakia in 1999. He has also attended ISBHF events in countries such as Switzerland, Czech Republic, Italy, Germany, Canada and the USA. Bob has also held positions of Referee in Chief for Canada Ball Hockey and the ISBHF during his distinguished career. His famous 5S rule still applies today in ensuring officials perform at the top of their game. • Safety • Sticks • Stuff after the whistle……..which is never even • Scoring Chances created or denied by fouls • And his favorite S – Stupidity. Bob’s reputation of being “tough but fair” and his ability to communicate with players on and off the floor have contributed to his success as an elite ball hockey official. His familiar yell to players when fighting for possession of the ball in the corners of “Win the Battle” was his trademark encouragement to keep the players engaged. Please join us in welcoming Bob Beatty to the Canada Ball Hockey Hall of Fame!
Hockey-balle Canada est très heureux d'annoncer le/la directeur(ice) général(e) des équipes masculines et féminines des maîtres qui se rendront aux États-Unis en 2023 pour participer aux Championnats du monde de l'ISBHF. Francois Chalut « C'est un honneur d'être nommé pour la cinquième fois au poste de directeur général de l'équipe masculine des maîtres du Canada. Je tiens à remercier Hockey-balle Canada pour cette nomination et la confiance qu'ils ont en moi. Je suis très fier des réalisations de nos équipes au cours des quatre derniers événements mondiaux. Comme la compétition devient de plus en plus forte à chaque événement mondial des maîtres, mon rôle sera de construire une équipe avec des joueurs de la Colombie-Britannique à Terre-Neuve, qui représenteront notre pays avec dignité et fierté. La nouvelle division Masters 35+ représente un nouveau défi pour moi et pour tous les joueurs qui seront choisis. Je suis enthousiaste et prêt à y aller et je pense que mes quatre années d'expérience en tant que directeur général me donnent la motivation et la passion nécessaires pour mener l'équipe canadienne à une médaille d'or. Il y a un sentiment de fierté nationale lorsque nous portons la feuille d'érable sur nos uniformes. Il est maintenant temps de se mettre au travail et de ramener l'or, la quête de l'or a déjà commencé ! » Sara Hayward Sara Hayward, originaire du Nouveau-Brunswick, a été nommée directrice générale de l'équipe féminine des maîtres du Canada. Hayward dirigera ce programme pour la cinquième fois. « J'ai apprécié le temps passé au sein de ce programme de haute performance et je suis honorée d'avoir une autre occasion de bâtir une équipe qui représentera le hockey-balle canadien avec fierté et excellence. »
Nathalie Girouard – Temple de la renommée 2022 (Joueuse) Nathalie était une jeune athlète qui a grandi dans la région de Trois-Rivières, au Québec. Pendant ses années de formation, Nat a pratiqué le basket-ball comme sport d'intérêt de la 4e année jusqu'à l'Université d'Ottawa. Ce n'est que quelques années plus tard que le hockey-balle est devenu le nouveau centre d'intérêt sportif de Nat et sa passion à long terme. Nat a commencé sa carrière de hockey-balle en tant qu’attaquante dans la ligue de hockey-balle d’Ottawa-Vanier pour femmes (OVWBHL) au début des années 2000. Peu de temps après ses débuts en hockey-balle, son équipe avait besoin d'une gardienne de but et elle s'est portée volontaire. Ce poste est rapidement devenu permanent. Nat a été invitée à participer à son premier tournoi national en 2010 à St. John's (Terre-Neuve). Son équipe d'Ottawa a fini par remporter la médaille d'or. L'un des faits marquants pour Nat reste les 17 tireuses qu'elle a affrontés en fusillade lors de la demi-finale, avant de remporter l'or en finale. Nat a ensuite participé à des tournois nationaux à six autres reprises entre 2011 et 2018. Quelques faits marquants : Remporter 3 médailles d'or, 2 prix de gardienne étoile, 1 prix gardienne MVP, le prix Sara Butterworth, et en 2019, Nat a remporté le prix de la joueuse international de l'année. Il faut également noter qu'au cours des années 2013 et 2019, Nat a représenté l'équipe du Canada à 7 reprises - remportant 6 médailles d'or, et d'autres prix individuels. Nathalie tient à remercier tous ses coéquipières, passés et présents, car elle estime qu'elle n'aurait pas pu accomplir tout ce qui précède sans leur aide. Veuillez-vous joindre à nous pour accueillir Nathalie Girouard au Temple de la renommée de hockey-balle Canada!
Yvon "Skip" Breton - Hall of Fame 2022 (Player) One of the most gifted offensive players to ever play the game, with his amazing vision, passing and ball handling. This scoring machine led powerhouse teams from Ottawa 80s & 90s to excellence. At the top of the leader board in points in each Canada Ball Hockey Nationals he attended, he was also a sniper to stop every shift he played for the opposition. This gift of talent to Canada Ball Hockey came by the way of Hearst, Ontario and to top it off Skip was one of the most celebrated Broomball players in the World!! For our sport and Canada Ball Hockey one of the most feared offensive players ever to play and rightfully joins the best ever in Canadian history!! Please join us in welcoming Yvon “Skip” Breton to the Canada Ball Hockey Hall of Fame!
Robert Mentis - Hall of Fame 2022 (Player) Robert Mentis was a young forward playing ‘A’ level in Toronto with the Villagers team along with his brother James ‘Chicky’ Mentis. In 1987, Bobby joined the Top Guns and quickly won the Provincial Championship that year and headed to the Nationals. It was a preview of things to come. He won his first Nationals in 1991. In 1993, Midnight Express joined the Toronto Northwest ‘A’ league and Bobby’s leadership and skills as a player was breathtaking to say the least. His pure speed was impressive and his ability to win battle after battle after battle made him one of the best players to ever play our great game of ball hockey. He was part of the first team to win five consecutive National Championships from 1996 to 2000 and then added a couple more in the new century. In addition, he played for Team Canada in 1999 and 2001 and won Gold in 2001. As great a player as he was, he was even a better father and friend. I was lucky enough to play with him and to this day, one of the classiest players I’ve ever seen. He was taken from us way too soon. Bobby, we all love you, we all miss you and one day we’ll be together again and talk about your mesmerizing speed. Represented by Lois Mentis and Nadine Mentis, please join us in welcoming the late Bobby Mentis to the Canada Ball Hockey Hall of Fame!
