Whitby Girls Hockey Association

What a comeback performance.The U11AA team claimed the gold medal at the New Tecumseth ODR Winter Classic Tournament after an unforgettable rally that showcased heart, grit, and determination from start to finish.After dropping their first two games of the tournament, the odds were stacked against them and many had written the team off. But the U11AA players had other plans. Refusing to quit, the squad regrouped, reset, and delivered when it mattered most—stringing together three straight wins to storm back and capture the championship.

The U13A team delivered an unforgettable performance at this year’s Silver Stick Tournament, showcasing resilience, belief, and championship character from start to finish. After opening the tournament with two tough losses, the group found themselves facing adversity early. Rather than folding, the team came together, reset, and responded the only way they know how — with determination and heart.
