Ritch Winter, a small-town dreamer from Drumheller, Alberta, transforms his passion for sports into a successful career as a sports agent. From an early age, Ritch envisions himself navigating the world of professional athletics, but his journey takes a profound turn when he finds faith.

In his story, one of perseverance and divine intervention, Ritch is a student at the University of Calgary, where he secures the last spot on the men's volleyball team, a moment that would change the course of his life. Why? Because he's on the team, he's able to attend an international tournament in Israel where he experiences a spiritual awakening, walking the very paths where Christ once walked. This pivotal moment ignites a deep desire for a personal relationship with God, leading him on a two-year quest that culminates in his baptism into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Ritch's journey is a testament to how faith and sports intersect, providing him with invaluable connections and opportunities that launch his career as a sports agent.
