MR. SPEAKER:
The hon. the Member for the District of Straits-White Bay North
MR. DEAN: I rise in this House today to once again recognize successful hockey in St. Anthony, this time by congratulating the members of the St. Anthony Polars Atom Hockey Team on winning the Atom ‘I’ provincial championship at a recent tournament in Botwood.

I would like to congratulate the players who pulled of a stellar win, going undefeated in their six-team tournament to pull off their gold medal finish. Their hard work, relentless effort and attention to detail certainly helped led to their team’s success.

I also wish to extend my congratulations to coaches Jim Pilgrim, Eddie Woodford, Todd Taylor and Kerry Decker. Their hard work and dedication to the team has certainly contributed to their victory. Sports are very important to the youth in my district and I commend the individuals who dedicate their time to coach them.

Mr. Speaker, I ask all members of this House today to join with me in congratulating this team and their coaches and wish them all well as they participate in future competitions.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
