Minor Bantam A, Under 14, 2017-2018 (Burlington City Rep Hockey Club)

The Christmas break was very good to the Minor Bantam A Eagles.  The Oakville Richard Bell tournament posed a big challenge with 10 competitive teams including 3 from Finland.  Going undefeated in the prelim's, and winning their semi final match up, the Eagles faced their bitter rivals Oakville Red in the final.  With 50 loud and boisterous Finish boys all cheering for Oakville (they boarded with them throughout the wk)

This past weekend our Minor Bantam A boys made an impressive statement at the Woodstock regional Silverstick tournament.  On the way to claiming the #1 seed, our boys beat previously undefeated and #1 rated Woodstock as well as a very highly rated and AA bound Hamilton Huskies team.  We then knocked off Sarnia in the semi's to once again face Woodstock in the finals.  A heart wrenching 3-1 defeat but the confidence and one-team momentum the boys took away will act as a great launching pad for the remainder of the season.
