Huge Congratulations to all 2024 / 2025 WVMHA award winners!

All the teams had their successes, challenges, and stories to tell at the end of the season.

The U7 team reported that these youngest players practiced hard and learned a lot this season, learning to skate, handle the puck, and participating in their first games in several tournaments.

U9 team had a successful season, playing many games throughout the season, and playing on full-ice for a tournament at the end of the season at home.

There were two U11 teams this season, and both competed well in their respective league and tournament games, had fun as a team, and developed enormously.

The U13 team was strong this year, going to the Provincial Championships in Osoyoos in March and winning the Fair Play Award in that tournament.

The U15 team had a successful season, bringing in two new players, and completing well and winning several tournaments throughout the year.

The U18 all-female team brought together players from several age divisions and many communities in the East Kootenay region to play together on a team in the Southern Alberta Female Hockey League.

The U18 coed team had a full roster of players, including some returning players and one new player, competing in the East Kootenay League and in many tournaments.
