WEEKLY UPDATE

It’s hard to believe this season is under wraps! Week #10 was a strong and exciting finish to our winter ball hockey program. Their effort, focus, and sportsmanship truly stood out, making it clear how much progress has been made since the beginning of January. We are looking forward to seeing all of our players at our west end arena, Belltown Dome, or other HTBHL programs across the city this spring and summer. Have a fantastic end of school year and summer!
