PEEWEE FLAMES VS STORRINGTON

The Flames gave 100% against Storrington despite a 3-1 loss. They battled throughout three periods of intense hockey.

By far the most action packed moment of the game occurred when Sammy made several saves aided by his players. Can't wait to see what happens next weekend!

ATOM - WINGS VS FLAMES

Dominic seen here in action was very busy throughout the first half of the game. He made many great saves, which inspired his team mates. Good Job Dominator!





It's Shawn's turn in net for the second half. Challenging and in the ready position he is waiting with anticipation for the puck to be dropped during the face off.




The Wings have double the power on this line with the twins Liam and Eric. Here you can see Liam (or is it Eric ?) caught up in the heat of the action... Can you tell?

FH EQUIPMENT MANAGER

In today's busy world, how do some people find time to volunteer? Well, Fort Henry has long relied on volunteers for organizational management. For example, Tracy has been Fort Henry’s equipment manager for nearly four years. As the equipment manager she maintains an accurate record of the leagues capital equipment, updates our equipment, and disposes non-serviceable assets in accordance with our policies. Its a busy job but someone has to dot it! Thank you to all our volunteers for a great start of the season!

PEEWEE PLAYER ASSESSMENT

Today the Peewees skated and played hard through a series of conditioning drills while Coach Jean-Marc and Coach Mickey evaluated the players. Each player worked hard to showcase their skills. The ultimate goal is to match the Flames and Wings in strength.




Repetition is often used to develop players to be the best they can be. Assistant-Coach Mike and Assistant-Coach Brian discuss work techniques and take every opportunity to teach and demonstrate teamwork and sportsmanship.

ATOM PLAYER ASSESSMENTS

Atom players were assessed for the second weekend in hopes to find equilibrium amongst both Fort Henry Atom teams. Parents often wonder how coaches assess the talent and potential of hockey players. In essence players are evaluated on three major components; technical ability, athletic ability, and tactical awareness.




Coach Dave is getting ready to drop the puck for a confirmation exercise between the Wings and Flames. Coaches are trying their best to balance the teams before starting the season.

Shawn's keeping a watchful eye on the puck while two defence players are protecting the zone. In essence the idea for defence is to stay between the offense and the goal. A picture is worth a thousand words. Well done!

SKILLS CAMP DAY 2

After a good night's sleep the Peewee and Bantam players arrived bright-eyed and eager for another day of skills camp. The activities started at 08:00 with Bantam doing skating drills at the arena while the Peewees played soccer-baseball outdoors.



After a delicious and healthy meal at the Mess Hall, Bantam players showed off their newly-acquired skills by playing a friendly game of hockey.




Coach Darryl keeps a watchful eye on his team. Two full days of coaching and it looks like he's ready for more. Let's hope he gets his voice back before next weekend!



The Peewees sharpened their marksmanship skills in a game of bowling. Truth-be- told it's not as easy as it looks but the players managed to refine and develop a wide range of bowling styles. Move over happy Gilmore here comes the Peewees!




New and old friendships having fun while enjoying a slush Puppy. There's nothing like a sugar rush before going back on the ice.



Back at Constantine the Peewees play a final game of hockey. Here, Sam steels another goal while doing Patrick Roy's trademark move - The Butterfly.



Participants gave maximum effort during two full days of fun-filled activities. Congratulations on your hard work, dedication, and sportsmanship. Wishing you all the best for the upcoming hockey season and hope to see you next year.



Thanks to all our volunteers for a job well-done. Again this year you did a terrific job by providing a positive, safe, and fun experience for the kids over one weekend.
