PeeWee LL1, 2014-2015 (Oro Thunder Minor Hockey)

In a series between two teams that could not be more equal, The Collingwood Blackhawks 1 won the deciding game three by a score of 4-3 that literally came right down to the buzzer....oh what we wouldn't do for an extra .5 seconds Congratulations to the deserving Champions coached by Sean C and an exceptional group of young men and one special lady who,along with our outstanding lads, represented this league in the finest fashion  ​

Apologies for the late game report but it has taken this long for the bitterness of our final playoff match to ebb away. It is an indictment of our game that a team can steal joy from a proud accomplishment with such chronically unsportsmanlike and recklessly violent behaviour. Sadly,this was all too predictable I have railed against said conduct since I began coaching,but for now will simply say this; the buck stops with the Coach(s) and then ultimately the Organization/League to control on ice player conduct On that front they have failed this season.... to the detriment of the ...

The two best regular season teams in the East met for a final time Saturday morning in downtown Guthrie A must ​win,a desperate opponent and a game we dedicated to ​Magoo No pressure right? "Not a problem Coach,we've got this" They sure did...... (game report to follow Blackhawk game on Sunday)

Two critical games on the schedule this weekend that will determine our chances of advancing to the A Championship Final Oro is in tough to advance and are officially the underdogs playing without our standout defender Maguire whose season was cut short last Saturday to a broken wrist. In 2012/13 our team could not recover from his loss due to a sketchy suspension, but this team has grown up,added new faces,and I'm confident we can dig deep and use our fallen comrade's bad fortune as a rallying cry So it's simple boys; buckle up your chin straps tightly and come ready to play the best ...

Oro1 was in Collingwood again on Sunday, this time to take on the Best in The West
