- Shows involvement with diverse groups and makes hockey more accessible (e.g., organizing days where everyone is welcome to try hockey, or clubs that are flexible with religious holidays or other cultural needs of players, etc.)
- Can demonstrate measurable impact or change (e.g., more women or players from diverse backgrounds registering)
- Shares inspiring stories (e.g., someone who, despite work/children/other obligations, can continue playing thanks to the club’s flexibility, or stories about women in leadership roles)
