Playing career

Hockey

Diduck also played for the Edmonton Chimos. She played with the Chimos at the 1998 Esso Nationals and scored a goal in the bronze medal game. The Chimos would finish the tournament in fourth place.[1] Her final international tournament was the 1998 Winter Olympics, where women's ice hockey was being contested officially for the first time. After retiring from Team Canada, she entered the University of Alberta. As a student, she played for the University of Alberta Pandas women's ice hockey program. Since 2005 she has worked as an assistant coach for the Pandas team.

Ringette

Diduck was one of the very first players to join ringette when the sport was first introduced to Alberta in Sherwood Park. From 1979 to 1983, Judy competed in the first five consecutive Canadian National Championships and she also played on the gold medal winning Team Alberta in the first World Championship in 1990 (which resulted in her being inducted in the Ringette Canada Hall of Fame in 2005 as a team member).
