Defying the Odds: Two Families, Six Players, Three Cities
What are the chances? Two families, each with multiple children playing on three different teams, heading to three different cities—all for Provincials, all at the same time. If hockey is a game of skill, strategy, and perseverance, the Cyr and Tran families are proving that the same is true for hockey parents.
The logistics alone are staggering. With overlapping game schedules and tournaments spread across the province, these families are pulling off a near-impossible feat—dividing and conquering to ensure every child feels supported.
Despite the chaos, their dedication to the sport—and to each other—never wavers. Whether it’s a last-minute FaceTime call, leaning on their hockey community for support, or celebrating from afar with post-game interviews, they make it work. “We just want them to leave it all out there with no regrets,” says Peter Tran.
This Provincials season isn’t just about competition; it’s about overcoming challenges, embracing the moment, and proving that with passion, teamwork, and a little bit of hockey magic, anything is possible.
Let’s cheer on our Provincials-bound Ravens and celebrate these incredible families! Click below to read our interviews with the Cyr and Tran families to learn more about their stories!
