Danny Verner Sledge Hockey.

Dear Readers

Danny Verner lives in Quebec and started playing sledge hockey when he was nine years old. His Spina Bifida does not hold him back. His first game was in 1988. He was just nine years old and he won his first gold medal. He made the national team in 1997 and competed at the 1998 Nagano Paralympic Games, where he earned a silver medal. He won another gold medal in the 2006 Torino Paralympic Games. When he is not playing sledge hockey he plays basket ball. He encourages everyone he meets to play sledge hockey.
