Novice LL1, U9, NH Novice House, 2012-2013 (New Hamburg Hockey Association)

The first game on Championship Saturday featured the Novice Home Hardware LL1 squad vs. their most recent nemesis, LL2.  The WRC was rocking with anticipation as the two teams took the ice for what promised to be an entertaining and exciting hockey game

Once again, it was tournament time for the boys of LL1. With many of the players sporting fresh new hairstyles, including mohawks of blue, the team entered Saturday morning’s first round match up against Walkerton hoping that their new look would inspire them to victory.

Prime time on a Thursday night, LL1 hopped on the ice for a semi-final game vs. the strong skating team of LL3.  Determined to break the streak of slow starts and bad first periods, the LL1 boys initiated a new warm up regime designed to get the blood flowing and the legs moving!

LL1 entered play today looking to secure top spot in the Playoff Round Robin, but with only 8 skaters in the line up, the task would prove to be monumental.

As the saying goes, “offence wins you games, but defence wins you championships!” The New Hamburg Home Hardware Novice LL1 team showed the truth in that statement as they skated to three shut-out victories on March 12th to capture the Plattsville Little Brave Tournament Championship!
