Madden Murray plays for the Dauphin Clippers and he got off to a great start with the team before the season was paused because of 'Code Red' restrictions.
Emmett is Madden's younger brother, he plays Novice, and he also loves being on the ice, but that's not allowed right now... inside anyway. So to stay on the ice, the Murray family got creative and made their own backyard rink.
"Our dad didn't want us to lose progress because can't play with our teams right now," said Madden. "So we made our own rink and we had a lot of fun."
Madden and Emmett both said it's super fun skating together and they love having an outdoor rink right in their backyard. The family skates at least a few hours on the weekend and during the week, they'll hit the ice before dinner and of course, they end their evening with another hard skate and some snacks around the campfire.
"We play a lot of games as well so Emmett is getting better hands and he's getting faster as well," ended Madden.
