Kings’ Van Teeling awarded IBAM/MJHL Scholarship

May 2, 2014

Mitch Van Teeling of the Dauphin Kings has been awarded this year’s Insurance Brokers Association of Manitoba (IBAM)/MJHL scholarship. The scholarship provides $2,000 towards post-secondary education.

“This is the third year IBAM has awarded this scholarship,” said IBAM Chief Executive Officer, David Schioler. “Mitch has shown he’s committed to making a positive impact in our community.

“The scholarship ensures that a young man will be able to pursue his post-secondary educational goals. Mitch was selected for his community involvement and citizenship, in addition to his excellence on the ice.”

Van Teeling, 20, is a three-year veteran of the MJHL and captain of the Kings. These days he and his teammates are busy trying to capture one of two RBC Cup berths available at the Crescent Point Energy Western Canada Cup currently underway in Dauphin.

An honour-roll student at Vincent Massey High School in Brandon, Van Teeling plans to enroll in a CIS university this coming fall, planning to study Kinesiology with his sights set on a master’s degree in Biomechanics.

This past winter Van Teeling was a volunteer assistant minor hockey coach in Dauphin and has participated in local school events including ‘I Love to Read Month’.  He’s also dedicated much of his time working with a mentally challenged man in Dauphin.

“Mitch has provided great friendship and support to this individual,” MJHL Commissioner Kim Davis said Van Teeling’s off-ice involvement. “Mitch epitomizes what the MJHL is all about. He is a committed student-athlete and community volunteer. Our league promotes quality on the ice, combined with education. Thanks to IBAM for its support and promotion of our league.”
