The never give up Raider attitude was alive when the boys came from behind on 3 occasions in the round robin enabling them to have an opportunity to showcase what kind of team they are.
When opportunity presented itself, their work ethic and passion to succeed took over. They shut out their final three opponents in their quest for the Bell Capital Cup Championship, including eliminating the tournament favourite.
Al Macdonald and Eric Leighton were both impact people within the NMHA. Eric was a passionate hockey player who Donnie Gallant and Garry Galley had the pleasure of coaching. He took great pride in being a Raider. Al was and is what Nepean Raider Minor hockey should stand for. Both are dearly missed. To be able to have our team win both the Eric Leighton and Allen J Macdonald Memorial Trophies means a lot to their families and this makes our Raider team extremely proud. We know the two of them were out there with us.
Congratulations to the Nepean Raiders Minor Peewee AA team.
