So… you just spent the last month engaged with sports you don’t usually care about at the Olympics. Curling, hockey, skiing – you were ready to show up, repping your country and snacking on popcorn as you yelled at the TV about a sport you didn’t really know that much about. But what about now? Besides the Paralympics (which you should totally be watching), what other national tournaments are there to celebrate? We’ll help you out: The World Baseball Classic!

Alysa Liu’s story to Milano Cortina in 2026 is inspirational, but more than that, it proves to everyone in sports that it’s okay to prioritize yourself first, and that when you do, you’re able to find yourself (and your incredible personality) too. 

We’re sure you've heard about Macklin Celebrini’s age – because it was talked about a lot. He may not be the youngest player to ever breathe (although with how much the analysts were going on about him, it sure feels like it), but he is the youngest player to ever be named to Team Canada. At merely 19 years old, he beat out Drew Doughty, who was only 20 when he was named to the Winter Olympics in 2010.
