Well done to all the teams for their outstanding performances in the championships!

In a heartwarming display of community engagement and teamwork, two prominent youth hockey teams from the Atlantic Hockey Federation recently stepped up to contribute to their local communities in impactful ways.

The Grundy Senators 14U Lemieux team, under the guidance of Head Coach Jay Miller, dedicated their time and effort to volunteering at their local Habitat for Humanity ReStore in Langhorne, PA, on February 9th. The players, alongside their coaching staff, rolled up their sleeves and got to work, assisting with various tasks at the ReStore. From organizing inventory to helping customers, the Senators demonstrated their commitment to making a difference in the lives of others.

Meanwhile, the Valley Forge Colonials 16U Lemieux team, led by Coach William Kelly, took a different approach to community service. The team organized a fundraiser to support their local food bank, Phoenixville Area Community Services (PACS). Through their collective efforts, they managed to raise an impressive sum of over $1,000, along with 213 pounds of food donations. This past week, the Colonials proudly delivered the proceeds of their fundraiser to PACS, providing much-needed assistance to individuals and families facing food insecurity in their community.

Both initiatives exemplify the values of teamwork, compassion, and giving back that are instilled within these young athletes through their involvement in hockey. Beyond honing their skills on the ice, these players are learning the importance of being active and engaged members of their communities.

Not only do these acts of kindness benefit those directly impacted by their efforts, but they also serve as powerful reminders of the positive impact that sports teams can have beyond the confines of the rink. By coming together to support worthy causes, the Grundy Senators and Valley Forge Colonials are not only strengthening their bonds as teammates but also leaving a lasting impression on their communities.

As they continue their hockey journeys, may these young athletes carry forward the spirit of giving and continue to make a difference wherever their paths may lead.

Congratulations to all the teams that have successfully advanced to the 2024 AHF Championships! We are excited to back with weekend 2 of Championships. The featured divisions for this weekend include Mite Add On and 10U-14U Lemieux, Gretzky, and McDavid.

Well done to all the teams for their outstanding performances in the championships!

The Atlantic Hockey Federation’s Selects showcased their talent and resilience during the highly competitive Quebec International PeeWee Hockey Tournament held from February 8th to 18th, 2024. As participants in the M13 AA Division, the AHF Selects emerged as the 2024 finalists, leaving an indelible mark on the prestigious event.

The journey began on February 9th with an exhibition game against Zenith Ice Korea. Despite a valiant effort, the AHF Selects fell short, losing 2-4. However, this setback only fueled their determination for the challenges ahead.

On February 11th, the team rebounded spectacularly in Exhibition Game 2 against the Vegas Golden Knights, securing a commanding 5-0 victory.

The tournament continued with ups and downs, as the AHF Selects faced the Hong Kong Typhoons on February 12th in their first official game. Although they fought hard, they narrowly lost 2-3. Undeterred, the team used this experience as motivation for the games to come.

In the midst of the tournament, the AHF Selects engaged in an Exhibition Game 3 against England National on February 14th, emerging triumphant with a convincing 6-1 win. The victory not only boosted morale but also showcased the team’s ability to adapt and excel.

The tournament’s intensity reached its peak on February 15th when the AHF Selects faced Team Kazakhstan in Game 2. With outstanding performances, including a hat-trick from Chris DiCrecchio and a goal from John Ciesla, the team secured a 4-2 victory, setting the stage for further success.

Continuing their winning streak, the AHF Selects faced Team Romania Wolves on February 16th, clinching a dominant 4-0 triumph. Goals from Cameron Book, Aiden Honan, Connor Cusato, and Aiden Guinter highlighted the team’s depth and skill across the roster.

The semi-final on February 17th saw the AHF Selects pitted against Team Doritos in a fiercely contested match. With goals from Aiden Cash and Aiden Honan, the team secured a hard-fought 2-1 victory, earning a spot in the finals.

The grand finale on February 19th saw the AHF Selects facing off against Austria and Stars. Despite a valiant effort, the team narrowly lost 3-2, with goals from Aiden Cash and Andrew Schmid.

Beyond the rink, the AHF Selects immersed themselves in the rich culture of Quebec. Staying with Billet Families provided a unique opportunity to connect with the local community, while activities like snow tubing and indulging in sweets at the Sugar Shack added memorable experiences to their journey. Attending a Remparts game further deepened their appreciation for the love of hockey in Quebec.

The Atlantic Hockey Federation’s journey at the Quebec International PeeWee Hockey Tournament was marked by thrilling victories, hard-fought battles, and unforgettable experiences both on and off the ice. The team’s dedication and camaraderie showcased the true spirit of youth hockey, leaving a lasting legacy in the heart of Quebec.
