Sports Information

I started playing field hockey when I was 5 on an "all boys" team in Victoria. My whole family has always played the sport. I started playing on the Provincial Team when I was 13 and have not stopped since.

Played on the Junior National team from 1996-2000.

Played for UVic from 1996-2000 and played in 5 National Championship finals.

First selected with the Senior National Team for the 2002 European Tour (Scotland & Wales) and scored two goals for her first International Cap against Scotland!

Human Interest

Occupation: physical therapist

Retired from 2005-2008.  I got married in 2007 and changed my name from Meggan Hunt to Meggan Oliver.

 

I love to compete and I love the mountains.  Outside of field hockey, I enjoy adventure racing, hiking, camping, pilates, trail running, rock climbing, and mountain biking.  I’m always up for an adventure!
