Mr. Speaker, I rise in this House today
to congratulate the St. Anthony Polars Female Hockey
Team on recently being crowned the provincial champs at
the all Newfoundland and Labrador Female Under 20 C
Hockey Tournament that was hosted in St. Anthony.
Four teams from across the Province competed in the
three-day tournament, with Bonavista and St. Anthony
competing in the championship game. The winning team was
not only proud to have won with a score of 4 to 1, but
they were also extremely proud to have done it in front
of their home crowd.
I would like to congratulate each player who pulled
off a stellar win. They are: Karla Patey, Madison Patey,
Holly Earle, Sarah Blake, Nikita Pittman, Brooke
Noseworthy, Kerry Patey, Heather Richards, Rebecca
Sexton, Kristen Patey, Johanna Elliott and Dana
Saunders. Their hard work, relentless effort and
attention to detail have certainly led to their team’s
success.
I also wish to congratulate coaches Tonya Noseworthy,
DJ Elliott and Phil Hancock for their hard work and
dedication to the team which has certainly contributed
to their victory.
Mr. Speaker, I ask all members of this House to join
with me in congratulating this team and their coaches
and wish them well as they participate in future
competitions.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
