The Novice A Clippers are off to a roaring start this season, currently sitting tied atop the standings with a perfect 6–0 record. The team sports 75 goals for and only 20 goals against.
The team is comprised of five returning players—Logan Barnabe, Haven Wiebe, Tristan Cousineau, Noah Hudson, and Max Dowse. New to the Novice A team this year are Cheyenne Scott-Cooke, Aaron Schmidtke, Luca Nurse, Chase Hopkins, Xander Admiraal, Kaleb Collette, and Niko Lemoine. The team’s head coach is Eric Cousineau, with assistants Jason Hudson and Ray Dowse.
The team has earned their record with some strong team play and hard work, which has the players’ confidence growing every time they hit the ice.
The team does not have a full-time goalie, meaning that the players have been taking turns putting on the pads, many of them testing out the position for the first time.
Their most recent weekend of league play saw them come away with a 7–3 win against Mitchell and a 15–1 victory over Grunthal.
