As an Indigenous goaltender currently competing in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League (SJHL) with the Nipawin Hawks, I am driven to excel at the highest level of collegiate hockey, with a focused goal of playing NCAA Division I. I am seeking a program that prioritizes community involvement, a strong team bond, and a commitment to winning. In my first Junior A season I played in 31 games, and finished the last two months of the season with a 0.914 save percentage and a 2.72 GAA. My five seasons in the Alberta Elite Hockey League (AEHL) at the AAA level have provided a strong foundation for my continued development.
To pursue my hockey aspirations, I began billeting in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta, at the age of 13, while playing U15 AAA. This experience has significantly contributed to my personal and athletic development, teaching me accountability and resilience.
I pride myself not only on my hockey skill, but also on my character. I was named the SJHL RBC Community Ambassador for the Nipawin Hawks, and the 2023 Bouchier Junior Oil Barons graduating player scholarship, showing my dedication to my community, and being a good role model. Additionally, I am honored to be named to the 2024 Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo Indigenous Sports Gallery.
Known for my exceptional skating, high hockey IQ, and composure under pressure, I thrive in high-stakes games. Beyond hockey, I enjoy staying active through various activities such as basketball, mountain biking, and gym workouts, and have competed at a high level in baseball and golf. I am eager to discuss how my skills and dedication can contribute to your program. Please reach out to me if you have any questions or feedback.
Sincerely;
Gage Roberts
