The Design:
The full colour imagery created by renowned Canadian artist Richard De Wolfe features four boys and a family dog engaged in some lively play on a frozen pond. Two boys battle for the puck while two goalies watch every move as they stand ready to block the puck that may come their way. In the background, wooden buildings, trees and gently sloping hills complete the rural setting.
