Mr. Speaker, I rise in
this House today to congratulate the members of the
Straits Rifters Peewee ‘E’ division squad who won top
honours at Bishop’s Falls during the Minor Hockey Easter
provincials. The Peewee squad’s tilt at championship
glory, took them the entire tournament without a loss.
Their only glitch came in their second game of the event
with a 4-all tie with Stephenville. They added a 3-1
victory against host Bishop’s Falls, 11-2 victory
against Corner Brook Regional, 3-1 victory against
Southern Shore. They won the championship game against
Stephenville 2-1.
I would like to take this time and congratulate each
player for their hard work and relentless effort that
led to their team’s success: Mitchel White, Kyle
Squires, Nicholas Mitchemore, Ben White, Jaret White,
Megan White, Mack Coles, Bradley Way, Owen Way, Zack
Applin, Ty Whalen, Allyson Moores, Blair Genge, Andrew
Genge, Brandon Guinchard, Dillion Gibbons, and Luke
Allingham.
I would also like to recognize those who dedicate
their time and effort to the youth and to the game of
hockey – the coaches: Dave White, Ian Dave White, Wayne
Allingham, and Darryl Way.
Mr. Speaker, I ask all members of this House to join
with me in congratulating this team and wish them well
in their future competitions.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
SOME HON. MEMBERS: Hear, hear!
