‘Amazing accomplishment’: Debden basking in broomball glory…again
A group of young women are putting the tiny town of Debden, Saskatchewan on the map.
For the third straight year, the Debden Roadrunners have won the U20 girls national broomball championship. The team beat Ontario’s Eastern Thunder 2-1 in the finals.
“These girls should really be commended for that…all these girls are from small town Saskatchewan, and they’re the best team in Canada three years in a row,” said coach Dean Demers, who guided the team to the title in Portage la Prairie, Man.
“That’s really an amazing accomplishment for us to beat all these big city teams coming out of the east.”
