Thank you Brantford Ice Cats!!

The U12 Sting had quite the day of hockey today. Two games and more smiles than a person could count! They opened the day against the CAHA squirt Penguins, a formidable opponent with strong goaltending and tenacious skaters. The girls did well but seemed to be a bit more relaxed than the coaches would have liked, skating to a 3-3 tie.

The league game was exciting for fans and both benches. The highlight of the day though, took place six and a half hours later. On the docket? A team from... [gulp]... Canada.

That's right folks, Brantford, Ontario to be exact. The Ice Cats were in town and were so very kind to inquire about a friendly scrimmage. What fun.

"OMG they have their own bus!" said one of the Sting players from the locker room.

The hockey was awesome. We'll do a write-up tomorrow, but until then, enjoy these photos!
