“You have a dream that you want to work towards and it feels like it just got stripped away from you,” Kaddoura told Global News. “The 20-year-old year is full of opportunities. I want to get a scholarship through hockey and play university.”
Kaddoura was featured in our Top-500 NCAA Eligible 2000-Born Players report.
In 29 games last season for the Sicamous Eagles of the KIJHL, Kaddoura had 11 goals and 14 assists. Kaddoura also has experience in the SJHL and had previously played in the AJHL.
“It’s the time that matters the most for scouts to notice you and it’s hard to get noticed if you’re not playing,” he said.
