Another season has ended for the local Good Time Hockey League, and the Chiefs have carried the day. After losing the first game in the best-of-three finals against the Dark Knights, the Chiefs roared back to win both the second and third matches to clinch the title.

As I sit and write this, my legs are burning and my arms feel like they’re going to fall off. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It will only hurt for a day or two… or so I tell myself. 

The Niverville Club’s season got cut short by unseasonably warm weather, forcing curlers to head out of town for post-season play. Most of the playoffs occurred in February at the Otterburne Curling Club. The final was played on March 15 in St. Adolphe.

Peyton has been in the CanSkate program since October and has been a dedicated athlete all season. 

The warm weather in February has wreaked havoc on the Niverville Curling Club’s schedule. The club, which has one of the province’s few remaining natural ice surfaces, is always dependent on weather, but this year was worse than normal. When the temperature climbed above freezing for a week, the ice surface basically disintegrated.

It has been several years since the St. Adolphe Hawks had a team in the Hanover Tache Junior Hockey League. They’re back now, looking to advance to the finals.
