Canlan Youth Classic "AA" Champions

Raine's team had their first tournament over the weekend! Each and every one worked so hard and earned the championship!!!

I've heard from other people about some "hockey parents" and I think Daniel and I experienced THAT during the final game. Apparently the team we beat never lost so the parents weren't happy with the fact that we were beating them. As the game got more intense some parents started cursing and booing our kids. I thought "It's just kids hockey and they are only 8 or 9 years old...".

The season hasn't even started yet(it's summer hockey and supposed to be all about fun!) . I can't imagine when September comes and those parents get even crazier!

レインの新しいチームで初のトーナメントがあり行ってきた。みんな今までに見た事がないくらいがんばってナント優勝してしまった!

友達や他の親からこっちでよく言われる「ホッケーママとパパ」の恐ろしい話しを聞いていたが、トーナメントの決勝戦で初めてそれを自分の目で見てしまった。というのも、相手チームは今までにほとんど負けた事がないらしく、相手の親がうちのチームの親にヤジを飛ばしてきては口喧嘩、うちのチームの子(8, 9才)をブーイングしたりととにかく大人げない!

夏のホッケーで既にこんなになっていて、9月のシーズンが始まった時はいったいどうなるんだろう...

Pep talk from Daddy, "What do you want for dinner?"

Warm Up


Winning Moment!!!


We are the champions♪
