Clipper Ice Sports Hits Mid-Season

Share:

We are now partway through the hockey season and our parent association, Eastman Hockey, is trying something a little different this year to keep things competitive. We will be seeing a realignment within each division after 6 games to ensure that the second part of the season is as competitive as possible for the Novice and Pee Wee divisions.

Our Bantam B team has started the year off strong, going 3–0 to date.

In the Squirt division, the kids are well into the new cross-ice format that is going to allow them to have more puck touches and improve essential skills that will help them for years to come. They have also held their scheduling meeting to set up games against other communities to give the kids some game exposure.

Niverville recently hosted an Atom level tournament that unfortunately did not see any of the CIS teams make it to the finals. It was a hard-fought weekend of hockey and a huge success despite the on-ice record.

Next up in the coming month, the Pee Wee division will host a tournament, and the Novice A team will hit the road for a tournament in Portage la Prairie the weekend of November 27.

Clipper Ice Sports (CIS) will launch its own website soon through a Steinbach sports equipment store that will allow everyone to order their very own Clipper gear.

Attendance has been great at most of the games, which is great to see. Hope to see you at the rink soon for some exciting hockey action.
