Produktbeschreibung

In Shootout, Courtney McIntyre navigates Grade Nine at Estevan Comprehensive School while playing boys hockey for the first time. Meanwhile her sister Jessie is in her second year with the University of Saskatchewan Huskies, discovering the hard way what it takes to be an elite player in an elite league. Will the McIntyre girls have positive impacts on their teams? One thing's certain. Life-and hockey-are bound to throw some blindside hits.

Shootout revisits the 2013-14 season of the University of Saskatchewan Women's Huskies, who captured the program's first Canada West Championship. Four fictional characters, including Jessie, are inserted into the Huskies' saga, surrounded by the real-life players and coaches

Shootout is the fourth book in the award-winning #jessiemachockeyseries. Power Plays (Book 1) won a Moonbeam gold medal and was a finalist for the Saskatchewan Book Awards, Snow Willow Awards, and BC Young Reader Choice (Stellar) Awards. Face Off (Book 2) was a recipient of a Moonbeam silver medal. Power Plays, Face Off and Breakaway were originally published by Coteau Books and were relaunched in 2020 by Wood Dragon Books.

Maureen Ulrich was born in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan but grew up in Edmonton and Calgary, Alberta. She started writing horse stories when she was eleven and historical fiction during her high school years. In 1976, she returned to Saskatoon to attend university and graduated in 1980 with an education degree. Her first teaching assignment was in Lampman, Saskatchewan, and she has pretty much lived there ever since. She has been writing plays for young people since 1997.

Souris Valley Theatre in Estevan, Saskatchewan produced her full-length musical Pirate Heart (2018), scored by the incomparable Ben Redant.
