Bradford Blue & Gold Champions!
The Leeder & Associates U10 (Minor Atom) team started off their 2021-22 season in style with a big Championship win at the Bradford Blue and Gold Tournament this weekend by defeating the Bradford Bulldogs in a close final, 4-3!

The U10 team has been itching to get into the tournament and representative circuit for over a year after delays due to the COVID restrictions.  They used the opportunity of the tournament to quickly adjust to playing 5-on-5, full ice hockey, getting to know each other and the game!  They boosted their confidence in the first game with a dominating 11-1 win over North Toronto.  Their early morning game on Saturday saw them fall to their eventual final opponents, the Bradford Bulldogs, 6 to 1.  They got their groove back against King Rebellion, winning their final round robin game 3 to 1 and the semi-final Sunday morning a convincing 7 to 1!

The final against the Bulldogs saw both teams ready to battle with pressure in either end, on-point passing, lots of shots on net, defensive saves and all heart!  Although the Attack came out on top 3 to 1 after the first period, the Bulldogs came back to create a nail-biter with the score tied 3 to 3 at the end of the second.  The final period was intense with the Attack finally coming out on top 4 to 3 at the end of the game!  Tournament Champions!

Great job by all of our skaters, goalies and coaching staff.  What a way to start the season and the competitive hockey career for this young group!

Doug Cameron opened Owen Sound Subaru on November 1st, 1995. Doug was very impressed with the quality, capability, and reliability of Subaru vehicles and knew that they would be a perfect fit for the lifestyles of customers in the Grey Bruce areas. It took only three years for Doug to make the first expansion of his franchise and Subaru was moved into a new building in 1998. As the business continued to grow a third move was made in 2013 to the current home of Owen Sound Subaru. Owen Sound Subaru has an excellent selection of new Subaru models in stock to suit all your driving needs.
