Clinton Minor Hockey players and coaches got together for the season-ending skills competition and fun day on Feb. 23. Hockey games at the 47 Mile Sports Complex attracted good crowds of spectators.

On Feb. 23, the Clinton Minor Hockey group had a skills competition and fun day.

The children ranging in age from four to 17 years competed in fun skills courses and races. Several spectators came out to watch despite the nasty winter weather.

A concession by donation was put on by the association and all players were given ribbons and cupcakes for participating at the end of the day.

The younger skaters coached by Murray Kane and Craig Allison wrapped up their hockey season on March 6. All of the players have shown a huge improvement over the season.

A big thank you goes to the volunteers who make the Clinton Minor Hockey happen. It keeps the children active in the winter and is also a great way to get spectators out, as many of the seniors would rather come out and watch the children play hockey than the older players.

The 47 Mile Sports Complex has been well used during the 2013/14 season with mens and ladies hockey, beginner hockey, minor hockey and a few tournaments have been hosted here as well.
