The Mohawk Council of Kahnaw�:ke (MCK) wishes to inform the community that Rats�nhaienhs Harry Rice will be leaving for Hawaii this weekend to fulfill his duties as Coach with the National Indigenous Football Association (NIFA), bringing sixteen (16) girls from Kahnaw�:ke  to participate in the Waipio Cup international soccer tournament in Waikiki.

His commitment to coach the team was made well in advance of the recent Mohawk Council Elections, where he gained a seat on Council. Rice is in his 18th year of coaching soccer. He has been involved with NIFA since 2014.

�I think we�re all pretty excited,� said Rice. �This event is giving our girls the opportunity to be exposed to excellent competition with people from around the world. And our girls get to visit Hawaii!�

The actual games will take place from August 17th to 19th. 

Rats�nhaienhs Rice is scheduled to be back in the office on August 30th.
