Famous Birthday Reports







Angela James

I chose to do my research on Angela James because I have never heard of her before, and I wanted to learn a bit about what she has done. Angela James was born on December 22, 1964 in Markham Ontario. She has 4 brothers and sisters and they all lived with their mother, Donna. Angela grew up playing ball hockey with boys in Toronto. She wanted to play ice hockey, but had a hard time finding a team that would give her time on the ice, since girls were usually mocked for trying to play. Some of Angela's hobbies include making crafts, sewing, cooking, playing ball hockey and playing slow pitch soft ball. Did you know that Angela was considered the Wayne Gretzky of womens hockey? As well as considered the first superstar of womens hockey? Angela played for the National Womens Hockey League. She usually played forward, but she did play any other position as well. In 2008, Angela and Geraldine Heaney became the first women to be placed into the International Ice Hockey Federation Hockey Hall of Fame. Angela James was the first African-American to ever captain a national hockey team. Angela now works as a sports co-ordinator at Seneca College in Toronto. She also owns the Breakaway Adult Hockey School. Angela has won and accomplished a variety of many different awards over the years. Some of them include being added into IIHF hall of fame, also in the Ontario Ball Hockey Association hall of fame, ans was awarded a youth of the year award in 1985. Some of the important dates and events include, winning medals in over 12 national championships (1990, 1992, 1994, 1997) and was the team Canada lead scorer in 1992. I think that it must have felt pretty amazing to be considered the Wayne Gretzky of womens hockey. She could have just given up when she couldn't find a team that would let her play, but she didn't. She kept trying, and became great. Angela has probably inspired millions of women hockey plays with all of her accomplishments. If she became great, so many others can too.
