Ride to Conquer Cancer
Think of it as a history-making opportunity for you to do something big about cancer, something epic. Like cycling from Toronto to Niagara Falls. Over 200 kilometres in two days - June 13-14, 2009. Sure, it sounds like a lot… and it’s meant to be. The conquest of cancer is a monumental task and won’t be easy. But make no mistake, this event isn’t just for athletes or cycling enthusiasts. The Ride to Conquer Cancer is for anyone who wants to challenge themselves for a great cause. Even people who haven’t ridden since they were twelve. All you need is motivation, a bike, and a helmet. The rest is history. Be part of it. Predictive Success is proud to sponsor Joanne Sweers and Rob McTavish! www.conquercancer.ca

Ride to Conquer Cancer 2009
I want to thank you both so much for your support again this year! The 2009 Ride to Conquer Cancer was another huge success. I was one of over 3500 riders who took part in the record breaking weekend; more riders with more supporters along the course, and most importantly, more money raised to help fight cancer. 14.5 million dollars was raised to support The Campbell Family Cancer Research Institute at The Princess Margaret Hospital.
I was overwhelmed and honored by the support of my family and friends; together we raised over $5000! The two day event was a powerful and moving experience, one I was delighted to be able to share with Danielle. This year Rebecca and I managed to stay on course and despite the huge hill they threw at us on Day 2, we pushed through and completed the entire 200 plus kilometers on our bikes. It is important to do what you can, when you can and to remember that by working together we do have the power to change the world!
Thank you for helping me reach my fundraising goal this year and for being part of this amazing and important experience - we WILL make cancer history!
North York Knights Minor Pee Wee AA Team
The North York Knights are a minor hockey team comprised of 16 eleven year old boys who enjoy the game of hockey and the sportsmanship and friendships that comes along with the game. The North York Knights play in the Minor Pee Wee AA division of the Greater Toronto Hockey Association, in the East Division.
The nucleus of this team has been together for several years and has been very competitive in both league play and in the various tournaments in which it has competed. Over the past few years, it has won the GTHL championship for Atom AA and has won several tournaments including the Bell Capital Cup in Ottawa in 2007 and last season playing in the GTHL championship for a second consecutive year. This year, the team won the Richmond Hill Early Bird Tournament and reached the semi-finals in the Mississauga North Stars Early Bird. Our goal for the season it to win the GTHL championship, as well as be competitive in tournament play.
The coaching staff is very dedicated to the team and to the development of the boys, both as hockey players and young men. The coaches create an environment where the boys have fun and yet are expected to show respect towards their coaches, teammates, officials and the opposing players, and to be thankful to their parents and sponsors that give them the opportunity to enjoy this great game of hockey.
The team philosophy is to strive to ensure that the boys are provided with an opportunity to develop their own individual abilities, but equally important, to develop as a team. In order to accomplish this, it takes time and the dedication on behalf of the players, parents and coaches. Without your support, this would not be possible.
Vaughan Panthers Bantam Ice Hockey Team
The Vaughan Panthers Bantam hockey team is made up of 17, fourteen year olds who are committed to working very hard throughout the year to become skilled at the game, represent the community, develop as a team, and build lifelong friendships.
The nucleus of this team has been together for several years and has been very competitive in both league play and in the various tournaments in which it has competed. Over the past few years, it has won the GTHL city championship as well as several tournaments both in Canada and the US. Our goal for this season it to continue to work hard, and focus on winning the GTHL championship, as well as be competitive in all tournament play.
The coaching staff is very dedicated to the team and to the development of the boys, both as hockey players and young men. The coaches create an environment where the boys have fun and yet are expected to show respect towards their coaches, teammates, officials and the opposing players, and to be thankful to their parents and sponsors that give them the opportunity to enjoy this great game of hockey..
The team philosophy is based on 4 cornerstones, un-selfishness, respect, discipline and being humble. We believe the strengths of all great athletes are based on a combination of confidence and resilience. Confident athletes have outstanding work ethics during games, practices and training sessions. They dont cheat themselves, their teammates or coaches by taking short-cuts.
We try to stick to 3 basic rules:
- 1) Keep your mind off the things you don't want, by keeping it on the things you do want.
- 2) You cannot succeed without believing in yourself...that belief is completely under your control, and no one else can do that for you. A victim looks for others to blame. Coach. Ref. Fan. Parent. Teammate. But a true competitor willl search their own minds to see what they need to do in order to get different results.
- 3) Controlling your emotions. Frustration leads to anger, and when you become angry your judgement is clouded and you make mistakes and do not reach your goal.
In order to accomplish this, it takes time and the dedication on behalf of the players, parents and coaches. Without your support, this would not be possible
