(Reference letter from Woolwich Wild u18A forwards coach)

To Whom It May Concern,

I am writing to recommend Lily Martin as a very good hockey player and a remarkable individual. Having had the privilege of observing Lily on and off the ice, I can confidently attest to her skills, dedication, and character. Lily is a good skater with remarkable agility and speed, which make her a formidable presence on the ice. Her puck pursuit is nothing short of relentless; she exhibits an unwavering determination to gain possession and create opportunities for her team. What truly sets her apart is her exceptional battle effort for loose pucks. Despite her smaller stature, Lily consistently plays bigger than her size, demonstrating resilience and grit in every situation. She fearlessly engages in physical battles and often emerges victorious, inspiring her teammates with her tenacity and work ethic. Beyond her impressive technical skills, Lily is a coach’s dream. She is highly coachable, always eager to learn, and receptive to feedback. Her positive attitude and willingness to put in the work to improve make her a pleasure to work with. Lily’s dedication to her development as a player is matched only by her commitment to being a supportive teammate. She is a lovely young lady whose kindness, humour, and sense of camaraderie enhance the team dynamic and foster a positive atmosphere both on and off the ice. Lily’s combination of talent, determination, and character makes her an asset to any team. She embodies the values of hard work, sportsmanship, and teamwork, and she has my highest recommendation.
