U13LL, LL (Hespeler Minor Hockey Association)

On Tuesday night our Shamrocks headed out in the snow to play an exhibition game in Ayr against the Flames. The game was an excellent opportunity to bust the rust off the skates after an indulgent holiday break. Teams were pretty evenly matched but ultimately our Shamrocks skated away with a 2-0 victory. Player of the game was Scott. Scott was absolutely everywhere today on the ice, with great opportunities out front as well as breaking up the Flames passing lanes to create chances for Hespeler. Well done Scott. Your team is proud of you! 

On Friday December 12th the Shamrocks took part in the Waterford u13LL Tournament. 

Saturday December 6th our Shamrocks travelled to Woolwich to face off against the Wildcats. The Wildcats jumped to an early lead but our Shamrocks were not rattled, and rallied back eventually finishing the match 7-3. Player of the Game was Oliver, who netted his first goal this season today. Oliver has been stepping up his intensity all season and enjoying his new role as a centreman. Well done Oliver, your team is proud of you! 

Last weekend the Hespeler Shamrocks kicked off their first tournament of the year at home with the Hespeler Classic. The tournament saw the Shamrocks play some of their best full-team hockey of the weekend, even if the scoreboard didn't always show it.

Player of Game 3 was Oliver Wall with supportive play and good rebound attempts. Leo ...

Sunday November 23rd the Shamrocks welcomed Woodstock Jr Navy Vets (Black) into our arena. The game was not the best result for Hespeler falling by a score of 6-0. But with 4 unable to play and some lenient refereeing the game play was not what we are accustom to. However, even during dark days there are spots of brightness. Jase Martin was a bright spot on the evening. He is always dependable and solid on the blue line, but tonight demonstrated his impressive wheels and explosive skating with a fantastic rush and a well needed breath of energy in a flat game. Well done Jase! Your team is ...
