JAMAICA, ON ICE 🇯🇲🏒❄️
This Jamaican Independence Day, I’ve been thinking about all the places we show up and shine.
While we were in Montreal, we had the chance to catch some of the Challenger Series at the Sportsplexe Pierrefonds—a one-of-a-kind hockey tournament featuring teams from Jamaica, Greece, Lebanon, and Puerto Rico (thanks for the heads up)!
These may not be the countries you’d usually associate with hockey, but the passion? The energy? Electric.
We were especially hyped to watch Team Jamaica ( ) hit the ice—last year’s champions, back to defend their title!
Watching Jamaicans play hockey in Canada was something I never imagined I’d witness. It was surreal in the best way.
It felt even more meaningful because I was in Montreal to perform limbo—something else you don’t usually see in Canada. Just like them, I was there repping Jamaica in a space where people might not expect to see us.
Different settings, but both full of Jamaican pride—big up to everyone representing in spaces we aren’t always seen.
This Independence Day, I’m celebrating that. 🇯🇲
