Congratulations to the Ajax Knights Bantam A squad for their convincing win in the Bradford Blue and Gold tournament on November 16, 17 and 18!
The round robin revealed a 2-1 record with convincing wins of 9-1 over the host, Bradford Bulldogs and a 4-0 win over East Gwillimbury. Our third game indicated all would not be easy with a 2-0 loss to the Brampton 45's. Our record, however; gave us a first overall seeding after the round robin.The first play down game would be a rematch against the hosts, Bradford Bulldogs. It was most certainly a spirited affair with animosity showing itself from the game the day before. Tough play and even some rough stuff, but our Knights kept their cool and with stellar goal tending by R. Bannister, we were able to pull off a 5-1 win to advance to the final.The finals would be against an unknown opponent, Nepean Raiders. The Raiders were a smaller in stature team, but huge in heart. The Knights potted an early goal to give us a 1-0 lead, but Nepean would come back and score to tie the game. Chances came aplenty for each team with back and forth play, but strong in goal was V. Nguyen and our heavy forecheck weighed down on the diminutive Raiders. Three more goals by our Knights secured a tournament victory, our second tournament victory this season!Way to go, Ajax Knights Bantam A!!!
