The stage is set, the teams are prepared, and the NAIT Ooks Women's Soccer Team is poised to make its mark in the upcoming ACAC Championship. From the moment they step onto the field, they'll be driven by determination, skill, and a hunger for success. The Edmonton Soccer Dome will play host to this thrilling Championship, a battleground where these talented student-athletes, under the guidance of Head Coach Dhee Govender, will seek to rise to the occasion.

Coach Govender's words resonate with optimism and a sense of underdog spirit as the women's soccer team gears up for this Championship. "I think we want to be the classic underdog story," says Govender. "I am very happy with how we have progressed throughout the season. We've had some soul-searching throughout the year to be able to get our shot to play 90 minutes against a very good team. I am confident in the players leaving the dressing room; they give me a great vibe, and I think we're all guns blazing for the Championship."

The journey to success won't be without its challenges, as the NAIT Ooks finished in third place in the North division. Their first game will be against SAIT, and the stakes couldn't be higher - the winner will face the formidable first-place Concordia Thunder in a showdown scheduled for Friday at 10 a.m.

Coach Govender's confidence in his players is unwavering, and he emphasizes the team's resilience. "We have full confidence in all players that are hitting the pitch for our team. Our team is resilient," he states.
As they embark on this championship quest, the NAIT Ooks Women's Soccer Team carries the hopes of their institution and a shared determination to excel. The path ahead may be challenging, but with their coach's unwavering belief and a fighting spirit, they're ready to give it their all and aim for that ultimate prize - a chance to play at the CCAA National Championships.
