U13 Sharks win Okotoks Female Hockey Classic
The U13 AA NorthWest Sharks have shown their bite through the early going this season, coming off a tournament victory in Alberta, at the Okotoks Female Classic.
In just their first season of play in the inaugural year of the Female U13 AA League in Saskatchewan, the tournament gold serves as a benchmark win for the local female program.
It’s the kind of success head coach, Greg Slabaida said he hopes can serve as a springboard for the team moving forward, through the season.
“The girls had a strong weekend and it’s something we needed as a team moving forward, as it came at a perfect time just getting into the league,” Slabaida said. “I feel that with this win in Okotoks we can get some [other] wins here and hopefully grab a top spot by Christmas time.”
