What is Friends for LIfe?
The Friends for Life program is the brainchild of Bob McEwen of M&L Hockey in Quebec. Bob spent many years in competitive hockey as a player and coach, until realizing that the sport had become too much about winning at all costs. His efforts then turned to creating a program that focused on youth enjoyment of the game, regardless of skill, and this became the objective of M&L Hockey.
Bob then developed a relationship with the Space Coast Iceplex in Rockledge, Florida, by running the M&L Hockey camp each summer. Through conversations with Florida friends: the late Tim Szymula, Rick Ninko (owner of the Iceplex), and Gary O’Neil (coach and president of the local hockey organization), the idea of creating a youth exchange program was born.
