Midget A Wrap Up
What a fantastic season for the Owen Sound “Grey Bruce Laser Vision CentreMidget A Ice Hawks with each and every girl on this team improving as individual players as well as coming together as a team.  Every player was challenged to step out of their comfort zone in one way or another…and all responded to those challenges.  This was an incredibly hard working group of young ladies and they were a true pleasure to be around.

We were able to minimize our penalty minutes by over 50% in the second half of the season.  It was incredible to watch this unfold as we got really hot and starting winning.  This along with a team wide commitment to defense paid off with amazing results.  A huge “Gold Medal Win” in Pickering, finishing 3rd overall in the regular season, going to game three in the third round of the LLFHL playoffs and a successful showing at the Provincial Championships are some of what this team accomplished.

The Midget A girls would like to take this opportunity to thank the amazing coaching staff this year!!  What a remarkable group of dedicated individuals who encouraged, inspired and guided these girls through a very successful hockey season both on and off the ice!  A special Thank You goes out to our Head Coach Rob for the endless hours of planning, organizing & the developing of practice plans and game strategies for success.   Thanks for always being able to see the big picture and appreciating the potential that these young ladies possessed.  “Thank You” also to Sara, Ted, Paul & Brian who freely gave of their own time to teach these girls how to play with patience & encouragement.  Your lessons will be remembered long after this game is done and we cannot thank you enough! 

Thank You to Rick & Kim Papke for ensuring both the home and away jerseys were at the arena washed and ready to go.  That is a huge responsibility and it certainly didn’t go unnoticed! 

Lastly, a big shout-out to the parents of these young ladies!  You were a wonderful group of people and you represented the Owen Sound Ice Hawks with respect and class!
