Dr Rick Binette Award
This award honours Dr. Richard Binette’s outstanding contributions to Docs on Ice. Rick is a founding player, team captain, tournament host and executive member from Peterborough. Arguably his biggest impact is his mere presence, personality and the sportsmanship he epitomizes and that the tournament is built upon. This includes the remarkable impact this tournament has come to have on local communities and charities. The Binette Award is open to all players, rewarding the personality that makes a player a favourite teammate, opponent and citizen. The awardee will be a player who balances their own professional and recreational lives for the good of themselves and those around them including their greater community. They blend a competitive spirit with the higher principles of goodwill and respect for the wellbeing of others.
