Our mascot is a polar bear because it symbolizes resilience and strength in the face of adversity, much like our team’s determination to overcome challenges. The polar bear also serves as a reminder of the urgent issue of climate change, which threatens its habitat. The choice reflects our commitment to raising awareness about environmental issues while also aligning with our team colors, representing unity and perseverance.
