Flin Flon Minor Hockey hosted their first tournament of the season this past weekend and it was a big success at both the Whitney Forum and Sportex.

 

It was the 25th annual Mel Pearson Memorial Novice Hockey  Tournament paying tribute to one of the all time hockey greats from Flin Flon.

 

Action wrapped up on Sunday and it was the Swan Valley Colts beating The Thompson Dilly Bar Danglers 3 to 0 in the final to win  the Mel Pearson Cup.

 

Other scores included: The Snow Lake Spartans over McKeens Trucking 5 to 4 in the Cementation Event.

 

Swan Valley beat the Flin Flon Firemen 12 to 6 to claim the Jack Turner Event.

 

Northland Ford Lightning beat the Flin Flon Steelworkers 9 to 6 to win the Scott Davidson Event.

 

The Thompson Blizzard Beauties knocked off the Pas Huskies Black 11 to 4 in the Paddy Ginnell Event, and in the Shayne Pearson Event it was the Thompson Bar Busters over Norway House 10 to 4.

 

A big thanks to the organizers, volunteers, sponsors, parents, referees and all the coach's and players from both Flin Flon and everyone from out of town who provided a great weekend of hockey.

 

See you next year.
