The Jr Steelers Hockey Program had a great start to the spring hockey season at the Pacific Spring Showcase in Vancouver, BC April 12 – 14th. The Jr Steelers had every single Gold team in the tournament and faced some difficult competition. Here is a list of the teams accomplishments.

2006 Jr Steelers Gold

The team played very hard all weekend. As this was every teams first go at spring hockey the team came together very quickly and didn’t lose a game the entire tournament.  They were named the 2006 Pacific Spring Showcase Champions.

2005 Jr Steelers Gold

Entering their second tournament of the season the 2005 Jr Steelers Gold team was able to play defensively strong the entire tournament giving up the second fewest goals against in the age group. The team was able to beat the BC Bears in the Bronze game to finish third place at the Pacific Spring Showcase.

2004 Jr Steelers Gold

The 2004 Jr Steelers Gold team was able to come out firing in every game. The team had a very strong first half to every game and will work on doing a better job with a lead. The team finished with the third most goals scored in the Pacific Spring Showcase and will work on stronger play in their own end of the ice.

2003 Jr Steelers Gold

The 2003 Jr Steelers Gold team has improved substantially from last spring and will work on finding a way to win close games. The team competed hard in the Pacific Spring Showcase and just couldn’t find the right side of the score board. They will look to rebound at the Challenge Cup.

2002 Jr Steelers Gold 

The 2002 Jr Steelers Gold team appeared in their first tournament as a hockey club at the Pacific Spring Showcase. The team got stronger as the tournament went on and lost in the Bronze medal game to the Vancouver Selects. The team will work on strengthening their team play before the Challenge Cup.

2001 Jr Steelers Gold

The 2001 Jr Steelers dropped three games in the last minute of play which saw them fall to the bottom of the standings at the Pacific Spring Showcase. Although that wasn’t a representation of their play. The team was in their first AAA tournament in three years and will look for better results in their next tournament.

2000 Jr Steelers

The 2000 Jr Steelers saw an awesome level of compitition at the Pacific Spring Showcase. They lost only their third game in two spring seasons in the semi-finals and then rebounded by winning the Bronze game over the Vancouver Vipers. The 2000 division saw every team in the tournament lose a minimum of one game.

The Jr Steelers Gold Program made the biggest impact off the ice. The Jr Steelers family of teams was able to raise both the most money and most used hockey gear for charity out of every spring program in the Pacific Spring Showcase Tournament. This shows how lucky we are to have so many amazing families involved in our program that want to make a difference in the hockey community. We would like to thank everyone that was a part of helping make kids happy.
