IT’S PLAYOFFS! The Hornets started the quest for the Schmalz Cup with a first round sweep of the Huntsville Otters. The boys are looking to repeat as Carruthers Division champs for the first time since the 16 and 17 seasons. Check the website for dates and results as the playoffs move forward.

The winners from the Hockey Day in Alliston draw recently spent their day with the Hornets enjoying Pizza and time with the Hornets’ players in the heat of the Nest. It wraps up another great day of celebrating our local community and the youth who are participating in our game. Thank you to everyone who took part in such a great event.

On Feb. 22, the Hornets players and staff took part in the Coldest Night Of The Year walk to support our local emergency shelters. We were excited to be a part of the night and it was a great success. Congratulations to the organizers of the event who did an amazing job raising money for such an important community initiative.

As we move toward the spring/summer season, preparations for the next season have already begun. Please check our website for details of rookie camp as well as our third annual Sand Smash beach volleyball tournament. Any local businesses looking for a fun team builder should consider our business night on June 11th. The main tournament will be happening June 12th and 13th at the Old Alliston Arena. Anyone looking for registration information should check the website. Teams fill up fast so check often and register early.

We hope you will join us at the rink as we chase down the Schmalz Cup!

Go Hornets Go!!!
