Junior Development Thank You
Over 100+ kids participated in our Junior Development programs and what a fantastic 2018-2019 season we had! 

Whether it was a child’s first experience with Owen Sound minor hockey or their fourth, our mission was simple....help kids fall in love with the game.

Everyone worked together to help provide programs that cater to all skill levels while ensuring a positive learning environment that promotes skill development, teamwork and fun.
 
Pre-School (21 kids)
Coach: Andy O’Leary 
 
Initiation 2012 (38 kids)
Coach: Andrew Fry
 
Initiation 2013 (34 kids)

Thanks to the leadership of these four individuals, the support of several on-ice volunteers, the commitment from the players, and by sprinkling in unique experiences like playing in the Attack Mini Games, meeting Santa/Cubby/Attack players, pizza parties, etc. I can say with confidence that we accomplished our mission. 
 
See you next season!!

Crescent Athletic Club
The Crescent Athletic Club of Owen Sound, Ontario was envisioned and founded in 1920 by like-minded sportsmen as a viable way to bind interests, commitments and the continuance of minor sports teams in the community. Historically a not-for-profit men's organization with the aim to support local athletic teams. Today the club functions in much the same way it was originally fashioned. A place for members to meet and greet in the club rooms for drinks, camaraderie and some gifted gab. Club banquets and sports events like golf, darts and curling tournaments generate proceeds to help keep the club running and to raise donation funds for minor sports teams in Owen Sound when it is possible to do so. 2022 was a historic year as the Crescent Athletic Club celebrated 102 years.
McDonald's
