The South Cariboo Female Hockey League (SCFHL) Invitational Tournament played on the weekend in Lac la Hache may have sparked a new tradition.
The five-team, round-robin tournament ran at the Rolf Zeis Memorial Arena on Nov. 9-11, with entries from Fort St. James, Quesnel, Williams Lake, Canim Lake and 100 Mile House.
SCFHL tournament director Kim Mills says feedback from the event was very good.
"It looks as though everyone would love to come back, so there will definitely be a second annual."
With every team having a chance to play each other once, the Fort St. James Stars earned first place with three wins and a tie.
Second place went to the local Hun City Milers, which registered three wins and a loss.
Quesnel Gold Diggers took third place, while Canim Lake Puck Hogs and Williams Lake Ice Cats, which had a few 100 Mile House players on their bench, tied for fourth.
Mills says it was great to see such good talent on the ice.
"Not just from the young ladies, but from the more mature as well."
