Mildmay Tournament

After a very busy weekend of broomball the boys were very happy to have won gold!. The tournament started first thing Sat morning in Mildmay. (about 45 min North East of here) The first game was against Mildmay red which Blyth won 1-0. Their second game was against the Blyth green team. We have yet to beat this team this season, and with friends on the other side it was a tense game which went into overtime. (The parents in the stands HATE overtime. Very nerve racking for us!!) The game ended with Blyth green winning 1-0. From there our team went on to play the Seaforth team. Another hard game to watch, since my close friend Kim's daughter plays on that team and Rob Kim's husband coaches it. Blyth yellow outplayed Seaforth and won 2-0. So that was Saturday...Did I mention my girls were shuffled around from aftew houses so they could go to a birthday party. I did come back to pick them up and drove back to Mildmay for the Sat night game. So, onto Sunday...and who do we play - Blyth green again. The boys went into the game thinking they would be put out. But they surprised themselves and and got 2 goals in the first half on the first period! The team was pumped, the parents on the stands were ecstatic (at least Blyth yellow's parents) and then to win the game, one more goal in the second period to win the game! Blyth yellow was thrilled! Now for the last game. Against Mildmay green. They knew they could beat them, but both teams were out to win. So after what seemed to be a very long game Blyth yellow won 1-0 winning the gold for the Peewee division of the tournament!! It was a long weekend with lots of time to kill in between games, it was great!
