Season Opener September 21’24

Come on out to Wedges N’Woods for 3pm on September 21 for a game of MINI-GOLF, PIZZA & POP. This invitation is extended to all family members, players, coaches, volunteers. Please advise us via email: bladesoperationsteam@gmail.com of any dietary restrictions and the number of folks from your family who will attend.

We often do not get time to get to know families so this is your opportunity to renew acquaintances from last season and meet new folks who are just starting out with THE BLADES before we all hit the ice!!

Let us know and we look forward to seeing as many as possible!! (might be a good idea to bring lawn chairs as the picnic tables are limited). If you need directions, just ask. The facility is off of CanAmera Parkway!

Come and Celebrate with us!

It is time to Celebrate! We have just finished our 12th season and already are looking forward to Season 13!

We will be hosting a party with good food, games, fellowship and our fundraising SILENT AUCTION!

The price of the ticket includes dinner from the SWAT (sandwiches with a twist) Food Truck, dessert, games and an opportunity to bid on our amazing SILENT AUCTION items.

Still some awesome opportunities for great Hockey!

Although the weather is unusually warm, we have had some great opportunities for hockey and it hasn’t been too difficult to get around. In January we had some great teams to engage with and player participation has been encouraging. February has some home and away games posted, be watching the schedule for updates before you head out anywhere! Coach Brian and his fellow coaches continue with skill development and encouragement to our LTS players as the team prepares for an end of season tournament in Windsor! While March 23 marks the end of our season, our End of Season Banquet at the Schwaben Club on April 27th promises to be a great evening, a little out of the ordinary but it will be a fun event. Talk it up now with family and friends, it will be a ticketed event so be watching for details.
