U9 MD Recap for 2023
I just want to recap the season so far. In 2023 this team has had its share of fun. 

Team building right from the start of the year has brought this group very close to say the least. We have had team breakfasts, pizza parties, an outdoor hockey event with a nice team BBQ. Our kids got to meet the Dunnville JR Mudcats and participate in the pre game activities, a few development sessions, and just before the year end they will practice with some of the Caledonia Corvair Players.  The team raised 287 pounds of food and donated it to a local food bank. As well as our Christmas party was held at the Dunnville bowling alley. We had a great celebration with approximately 70 teammates and family members.  

The players practice hard every time out and it’s paying off on game day. Everyone on this team has noticeably gotten better at hockey in a very short time. We reward them with a hard hat for “hard worker” and a wwe belt for “play maker”.  MD is equal ice and opportunity, and everyone has got one or the other up to this point and will continue to circulate through out the season. We have strong practice plans, consistent coaching while developing skills both individually and as a team.  This has proven to be the recipe for success.  Our Team is undefeated to this point and we’re all looking for continued success and fun moving into 2024!!On behalf of the staff and parents we are very proud of these kids.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Sincerely,

Coach Paul
