Team Manitoba Junior Ice Brick hockey team, compromised of the top 10 year olds in Manitoba, recently competed in the Brick International Hockey Tournament in Edmonton, Alta., a 14-team tournament against top 10 year olds from across North America.

Team Manitoba went 3-3 during the round robin, falling just short of the quarter-final round. Still, the young players gained valuable experience against top competition, which they’ll bring back to their clubs this fall and winter.

Eastside players Drew Simpson (U11 A1 River East Royals), Bentley Peters (U11 A1 St. Vital Falcons), Jhase Jarzyna (U11 A1 St. Boniface Seals), and Lorenzo Cotroneo (U11 A1 St. Boniface Seals) all competed with Team Manitoba at the tourney.
