Teen said she hopes to inspire others with differences. | CBCKidsNews
Since she was four years old, Callie Bizuk has worked to become the best ringette player on the ice.
Now, Callie wants to inspire other young athletes who may feel that their disabilities are a barrier. That’s when Callie — who was born without her right hand just below her elbow — knew she wanted to be a part of the sport, too. Although prosthetics have allowed Callie to play, she’s also had to troubleshoot through years of problems on the ice, including her prosthetic detaching.
“Sometimes it would pop up and detach from the stick,” she said. “My coaches would be like, ‘Why are you off?’ And I’d be like, ‘because my arm detached.’”When Callie was nine, she decided she wanted to be a goalie, but ran into some barriers.On top of that, Callie did not yet have the right prosthetic — for nearly two years, she played with a goalie glove taped to her arm.Callie said her limb difference made her work even harder on the ice. At age 11, Callie made the top team for her division.
