Meet Our Team
Jean-François Lebeuf
Born in La Tuque, Québec, Jean-François grew up playing hockey his entire life. A gifted player in the minor leagues, he chose to pursue a career in hockey as a defenseman with the Gee Gees while he earned a Bachelor's Degree in Physical Education at the University of Ottawa.
His love for hockey and his desire to see the world, led him to Europe, where he spent four years playing for different teams in France and Belgium. Traveling through Europe to play hockey, he visited countless hockey rinks and slowly began organizing tours for Canadian teams interested in playing hockey overseas. Upon his return to Canada, he founded Transit Sport International and started organizing sports tours all over Europe.
