Born and raised in a small town in Prince Edward Island, Patrick was fortunate to participate in a variety of sports which helped him gain the skills which led him to where he is today. On the baseball field, badminton court, and hockey rink he developed life-long friends, experiences, and memories he would never forget. Now, Patrick gets to help families all across the province ensure their child gets to chase their sporting dreams just like he did…. So ALL<\/strong><\/em> Kids Can Play!<\/p>\n
