This past weekend, we saw 41 Teams visit Northumberland to participate in our first class, Annual Justin Williams AA Tournament.
Tournaments of
this caliber do not happen without a ton of organization, planning and
volunteering. Many thanks to our President; Todd Gimblett for assuming
the role of Tournament Director and for investing a tremendous amount of
time to ensure that this weekend went off without a hitch.
We would also like to thank all of the visiting teams for choosing our
Tournament - we hope that you had a great time in Northumberland and
look forward to seeing you again next year.
A very special SHOUT OUT to our 3 Nighthawk teams that battled their way
to the finals.
The
Quantrills Bantam AA and
Behan Minor Midget AA boys
came up against two very strong teams in their final game, and in true Nighthawks fashion, they rallied together, played hard and both teams edged out their
competition 2-1 and were crowned Justin Williams Tournament Champions
for their outstanding effort. Congratulations to you all!
The
Justin Williams Hockey School Peewee AA
group had a very fun and long run this weekend as well. They won their semi
final game in OT, then went on to force OT again in the finals.
Unfortunately, they lost in a shoot out, but what an exciting way to
conclude their tournament weekend! Well done!

Atom AA - Rideau St. Lawrence Kings
