Three-peat Tournament Champions (CAN/AM Montreal 2017)
The Richmond Hill Stars Peewee AE team participated in the CAN/AM Challenge Cup in Montreal this past weekend, December 8-10, bringing back Gold for the third consecutive tournament win this season!!

Facing tough opposition, representing teams both North and South of the border, our Stars remained undefeated once again throughout the tournament. The players fought tirelessly against the Grimsby Kings, Oswego Buccaneers, North Shore Shamrocks and Milton Winterhawks, only to face the Shamrocks in the final game rematch, in what proved to be the most exhilarating double overtime Gold medal game ever.

They played hard and overcame adversity - twisted ankles, bathroom breaks, concussion protocols, stomach cramps, questionable calls for and against, blown leads, and multiple penalty shots - to win it all.

The boys represented themselves and our hometown extremely well and played with HEART, making this a memorable experience not only for the players but the parents and coaching staff as well.

Congratulations to the players: (G.Battaglini, N.Battaglini, D.Belmonte, JM.Cassar, N.Christodoulou, A.Derlis, L.DiVenanzo, R.Ghorashy, F.Guo, R.Hart, N.Kong, T.Peel, S.Plaxton, A.Riccio, M.Simpson, D.Sirmis, D.Sit, N.Stamatopoulos) and coaching staff: (Jack Belmonte - Head Coach, John Stamatopoulos - Trainer, Kevin Cassar - Assistant Coach, David Plaxton - Assistant Coach, Antonella Cassar - Manager) on their third championship of the season.

GO STARS GO!!
