Our team is being coached by Coach Wade Robertson, Assistant Coaches Tyler Fehrenbach, Chris Piper, and Gord Jarvis. We have an exciting year planned with lots of games and tournaments to play. A big thank you to all who help coach and help with other parts of having a successful hockey season.
       We started the year out with two exhibition games against the Atom Carnduff Junior Red Devils with our first game in Carnduff on October 24th. It was a tough battle and ended with a tie of 5-5. Our second game against them was at home on November 1st, with a final score of 9-5 for the Cougars!
       Our first tournament was in Whitewood on November 7th & 8th.
