Jul 26, 2018 | 9:37 AM

Aryn Chambers of Blackfalds has a chance to play at the 2019 Canada Winter Games in Red Deer.

Chambers is one of 28 players from across the province named to the shortlist for Team Alberta’s female hockey team that will compete at the Games in February.

Chambers played defence last season with the Midget AAA Red Deer Sutter Fund Chiefs. She collected six points in 29 regular season games along with 52 penalty minutes.

Players were selected to the shortlist based on their overall play at the Team Alberta U18 spring camp in May, and at the Provincial Camp in Camrose, July 10-15. The shortlisted players will attend a fall camp in Edmonton in September, prior to final decisions on the 20 players selected to the Team Alberta roster.
