The last time the U15AAA Soo Jr
Greyhounds played in a tournament was at the 2020 Ontario Winter Games, where
the boys turned heads and made the semi finals along side the top 3 teams in
the country. This year, this team has added different elements that will help
elevate their game to the next level and their first test will be at the Boston
Pizza Icefest Tournament in Peterborough this weekend.
These young men have been putting in the work over this last month with the guidance of well respected and long time Head Coach, Dom Deluca. He has used the teams raw talent and speed and has transformed the Jr Hounds style of play that focusses on quick transitions and team play. The boys bought in 100% to this new style and it showed at the NOHLAAA Show Case. This weekend will be their first test as they will be playing teams outside the north.
The bus rolls out Thursday morning and all the action will begin Thursday night after a long 9 hour bus ride to Peterborough.
The boys will have their work cut out for them and the team is hoping to play all 7 games this weekend! Please see our schedule below.
