When the Canadian Team was in Japan for the 1978 International Field Hockey Match, the organizers would not speak to Hall of Famer Marina van der Merwe as a female coach, only communicating organizational matters to the team's "male" physician and the "male" interpreter. After Team Canada solidly won both matches and the organizers realized she was the coach in charge, they deemed her a warrior and presented her with this Japanese Samurai (warrior) Helmet.
