AAA Nations Cup Champions
The Minor Bantam Green team was invited to take part in the AAA Nations Cup tournament over the weekend. The boys were up against some tough AAA competition from the US, but competed hard, and were able to come away with two ties to help Team Canada in it's quest for the title. Their biggest game was against Detroit Compuware, where they battled hard to a 2-2 tie, giving them confidence for the remainder of the weekend. Special mention to Eric Kennedy for his solid play and heart throughout the tourney. In the end, Canada won the title, and the boys came home with some hardware!
Coach Sonier was extremely proud of the boys in how they stepped up and supported one another through every tough game they played. The team bond is even stronger through this experience, and these boys are a real family. In all his years of playing and coaching, he has never seen such heart in a team.
Great effort boys. Let's keep that intensity up right through the playoffs!
