The Revelstoke Peewee team travelled to Invermere for hockey provincials March 18 to 23.
During the five days of hockey games, this team of 10 to 13 year olds from Revelstoke, Golden, Nakusp and Sicamous, showed that they could work together to achieve a common goal.
Revelstoke’s first game against Fort Nelson was a solid 10-0 win with scoring from a variety of players. The second day of provincials saw successes against the Vancouver Thunderbirds (7-3) and Windermere Valley (9-2). On the third day of provincials, Revelstoke was unable to capitalize on some five on three chances while playing Vanderhoof, so took an 8-4 loss.
The next morning, in an 8 a.m. game against Kimberley, Revelstoke also fell short with a 7-1 loss. Kimberley and Vanderhoof went on to play the final game of the tournament with Kimberley victorious in a 7-0 win over Vanderhoof.
Coaches and parents are proud of the team’s performance. The players had a fun-filled week and will have many great team memories from this experience. The team would like to thank the many businesses and individuals who supported us on our journey.
