Silvertips to the Mac’s!
The North Island Silvertips are going to the Mac’s Midget AAA International Invitational Tournament in Calgary, AB. The tournament commences December 26. We are still unsure of our pool, draw, and travel plans, however those details will be sorted out over the next few weeks.
This is a tremendous accomplishment for this group, as it is the first time this team has been invited to the prestigious event. This tournament is the who’s who of Midget AAA hockey in Western Canada and even the USA some European flavor in the past.
We look forward to preparing for this tournament, as qualifying for the tournament was a season goal of ours (as well as winning a National Championship). One step at a time, but we believe if we don’t set the goals we will have nothing to work towards. Obviously qualifying is rewarding for the strong start to the season, now we will bear down even more in preparation for winning games at this event.
Please stay tuned for fundraising initiatives we will be kicking off in the coming weeks to fund the travel, meals, accommodations and team building events there.
