Ally Clements of High Bank is excited for the opportunity to compete in the 2017-18 Atlantic University Sport Women’s Hockey Conference.
“Since the age of four, hockey has been a huge part of my life,” said Clements, who plays defence. “I love where I live, and I’m proud to be an Islander.
“To have the opportunity to put on a Panther jersey is something that I’ve always dreamed of. I’m looking forward to being able to play in front of all my family and friends, and to be part of such an amazing program.”

Clements previously captained the Kings County Kings of the P.E.I. Midget AAA Female Hockey League, and was a member of the Team P.E.I. under-18 program that participated at the Atlantic Challenge Cup.
“We have watched Ally play over the past number of years, and what we really liked was her desire to compete whenever she is on the ice,” said UPEI women’s hockey head coach Bruce Donaldson. “Ally clearly likes the physical side of the game.
“She challenges her opponents and makes them work. Ally brings leadership to the program; she is big on community involvement, and academically does very well.”
Clements will enter the science program, and will specialize in kinesiology.
