17 Battlefords players invited to Sask First tournament
Twelve female and five male players from Battlefords teams were invited to the first set of Sask First tournaments after attending regional camps in early February.
Sask First is a series of camps and tournaments for midget and bantam aged players that the Saskatchewan Hockey Association runs. This invite is the first step in making one of three provincial teams, which are male U-16, female U-16 and female U-18. The male midget division has camps and tournaments, but does not form a team to compete nationally.
Leading the way for invites on the girls side are nine members of the Battlefords Sharks AAA midget team.
Both goaltenders, Chloe Burt and Chantel Weller, along with players Jessie Herner, Ryleigh White, and Ashlee Wolfe will attend the U-16 female camp, while Ali Aitken, Keara Amson, Ensley Fendelet, and Alyssa Roach, were invited to the U-18 camp.
