1st Spooky Nook Winter Indoor Tournament Re-Cap

September 9, 2024

A re-cap of the 1st 2019/20 Winter Indoor Spooky Nook Tournament.

We had our first Winter Indoor Tournament this weekend and we had a fantastic showing in Lancaster, PA! From the coaches perspective, this was an awesome tournament. We haven't looked so structured & determined at the first tournament of any season before. We didn't come away with any hardware but we also placed our teams in tougher pools compared to previous years. To put it in perspective, we travelled just 4 years ago to tournaments and the goal differential was in the '20s. This weekend, in only our first tournament of the season we were winning and tying games with a few losses. The fact that we have these kinds of results is awesome. We can see that as the tournament went along every single team developed, became stronger & it was reflected in the scorelines. Each team grew together as the day progressed. You should all feel proud as you took on the advice given by our coaches and implemented that on the court. We are so excited to get back out there! We are looking stronger, more competitive & with more structure for the second tournament in January, we will be ready to show what Western PA hockey has to offer. Thank you for your commitment & determination to make us the best club in the region! See you at the next practice!
