Clearwater's two Novice hockey teams hosted a six-team tournament last weekend.
“It was an excellent weekend,” reported coach Barb Coates. “The out of town teams were impressed by our lovely facility and seemed keen to return again, which speaks to how the tournament was organized.”
According to Coates, the two Clearwater and District Minor Hockey Association teams played hard. The Blue Crushers ended up with one tie and three losses and the White Crushers ended up with two wins and two losses.
“The best thing about tournaments is seeing the players improve each game,” the coach commented. “As well, the CDMHA kids represented the Clearwater and District fantastically with great sportsmanship and respect for their teammates, coaches, refs, and opponents.”
On Feb. 14, second-year Novice players from Clearwater will travel to 100 Mile House for two exhibition games.
