“I think we have achieved our goals for the week. We wanted to come to Bridgewater and try new combinations, put some players in different positions and work on new systems. Overall I think it worked out well. We managed to score a lot of goals, and we dropped a few. The aggressive production was well distributed among the players, and that’s exactly what we wanted to see in our squad Our progress is promising for the future, and we have prepared the field well for the International Para Hockey Cup. We know the competition will be tough there, but we are leaving Nova Scotia with great confidence in our means. “

At the end of the day, we were happy to end our streak by playing some solid games, and we will build on those successes for our next competition.”
