Richmond Girls Ice Hockey is very pleased to have the honor of hosting the BC Hockey Female Midget A Provincial Championships on March 10-14 at the Richmond Ice Centre. This is the first time that Richmond will have hosted Female Provincials in any division. These games were originally scheduled to take place in Taylor, BC. Recently BC Hockey advised that their bid was withdrawn and invited other associations to submit their bids. RGIH reacted quickly and subsequently was awarded the games. John and Pat Korenic will be chairing the organizing committee with the support of the Midget 1 Devils parent group.
"We see this as an excellent opportunity to showcase female hockey as a growing sport in our community and we are proud to be part of this growth. We will be providing our younger players with an opportunity to watch some exciting female hockey, giving those players a goal to reach for in the future. An added advantage for our Association holding the Provincials in Richmond is that RGIH players will have the chance to come out and cheer on our own very competitive Richmond Midget 1 Devils team" commented Patti Perkins, RGIH President.
The Championships will include 7 teams from across the province including the host team, our Midget 1 Devils. The Devils have participated in the Midget A Provincials for the past 2 years and won Silver last year in Salmon Arm.
The Opening Ceremonies will be held on March 10 on the Coliseum rink at 7:30pm followed by the first Devils game at 8:00pm. Come out to support the Devils and enjoy the Provincials experience.
