You can shake your head all you want. I am not familiar with this team from last year as we are new to the SoCal area, just moved back from Denver, CO. The Jr. Gulls A team went undefeated in the tournament. They were bigger than a lot of the teams, played well as a team, and did a good job of moving the puck.
I say we were happy with the results because while our team had been practicing, they hadn't had any scrimmages or position play practice. Additionally, this is the first time this group of kids had played together. So making it to the finals was a good starting point. I am not a believer in giving every kid a trophy. So don't go there with me on that one, but our kids shouldn't walk off the ice with their heads down. They did well for where they were in the season.
TTFN! Hope you enjoy the season! I know that I will.
