2010 Tournament Info

Calgary Blackfoot PeeWee Chiefs

The 2009/2010 Calgary Blackfoot PeeWee Chiefs play in the Calgary Minor Hockey Association.  With 11 other teams, they play PeeWee 1 and are tiered in the top division.  As of November 16th, the Chiefs are 3-1 in league play and currently sit in second place in the standings.  In pre-season play, the Chiefs went undefeated (7 wins against no losses) and won the Shaw Meadows Ice Breaker tournament that featured other Calgary division one teams.  In the tournament final they were able to best the Calgary Trails West Blades (2009 Coca-Cola Classic champions).

The Chiefs are a well balanced team.  In addition to a very good goaltending duo, they have a solid defense and a tenacious group of forwards.  The team is not big in stature but play with very big hearts.  They are successful because of their skating skills and their ability to quickly move the puck.  Four of the seventeen players on the team are first year PeeWees.

The team is coached by Vernon Olson.  Mr. Olson and the balance of the coaching staff have been with the majority of the players on the team through Novice1, Atom1 and now at the PeeWee level.
