Restoring Nature with Buhle Sutu and Our Hockey Players!

Meet Buhle Sutu, a senior hockey player with a passion for the environment. Last week, our dedicated hockey team took a break from the field to help restore a damaged forest site. They rolled up their sleeves and planted 688 trees, generously donated by the national German Women's Hockey team, Die DANAS.

This fun holiday activity was more than just a way to get our hands dirty - it was a chance for our youth to make a tangible difference for Mother Nature. The hard work paid off, as each tree planted is a step towards a healthier, greener future.

Thank you to Die DANAS for their incredible support and to our hockey players for their dedication and effort. Together, we are making the world a better place, one tree at a time.
