The Jr. Black Bears will be returning to the Jr. NLL Tournament for the second time following their successful debut last summer. The 2024 U13 team placed second in the tournament, finishing second by just one goal in a tight 8-7 overtime championship game. The U15 team left a mark of their own, when they were named the Team of the Tournament for the U15 Division. The U17 team saw their leading goal scorer tie for first in scoring across the U17 age group. Across the three teams, 11 Jr. Black Bears were named to the Canadian Jr. NLL All-Star team, the Beavers, which defeated their American counterparts by a score of 14-9.
If last year’s tournament was any indicator, the Jr. Black Bears can expect an exciting weekend to come in August!
