Coach Berggren excited for AAA Sharks fall camp
Last season was a rough go for the Battlefords AAA Sharks, but with training camp taking place this weekend, new Head Coach Gary Berggren is convinced this year will be different.
“We’ve had a lot of struggles over here in Battleford for a number of years now and I think this is the year that we’re really going to turn things around,” Berggren said on Friday afternoon. “I think this team potentially could be one of the best Shark teams we’ve ever had.”
Last season, the Sharks finished last in the eight-team Saskatchewan Female AAA Hockey League with a 3-23-0 record, while managing a league-low 42 goals in 28 games.
Berggren said the team didn’t do well in one-goal games, but that the biggest thing was a talent gap between the Sharks and other teams in the league. This year, that shouldn’t be the case.
