The PEI Major Bantam AAA Season is set to begin another exciting season on Oct 17th.

 

The league will continue to interlock games with New Brunswick. NB will travel to PEI on October 28th and 29th and February 10th and 11th.  PEI will travel to NB on Dec 15th, 16th and 17th.

 

The Mid Isle Matrix are heading into a big season with high expectations. The coaching staff, led by

head coach Cory Parsons, expects his team to work hard and to compete every night with a solid group of veteran leadership and a very capable rookie group that are looking to step right in and contribute, starting with their opening game on Oct 17th in Cornwall at the APM Centre at 7:20pm against Prince County.

 

Eastern Express coach, Will Zafiris, expects to have fast and tenacious forwards led by returnees Dylan Blackett, Jack Campbell, Gabe Hartlen and Cole McKeigan. On the blueline they are anchored by Seth Macleod and Alex Dixon and expect a solid goaltending duo with Caled Drake and Drew Chapman. Their opening game is Thursday Oct 19th against Central Attack at 7:30 pm in Pownal.

 

The Prince County Warriors will have a much different look than last year and recognize the importance of size and speed. Warrior coach, Cleve McNeill, is very excited about the makeup of their roster with six solid returnees including goaltender Aiden Williams, defencemen Zach Biggar and Colby MacDonald, and forwards Sam Hackett, Max Chisholm and Frédérick Morency.  The Warriors are also very excited about their crop of rookies making the jump from their respective Peewee AAA teams with five of their first-year Bantam rookies playing very important roles in their recent showing for the Under-14 Male Program of Excellence team. The Warriors home-opener is slated for October 20th in O'Leary at 7:30pm.

 

The Central Attack are returning with a new coach. Jeff MacDonald will look to his solid group of veteran leadership and very capable rookies. "We have a nice balance of older and young players who understand that we have a lot of great pieces here to potentially do something special," says MacDonald. "Our goal is to create an environment where kids are excited to come to the rink. It's about having fun, working hard, and being accountable.  We're looking to developing a team culture that, at the end of the day, gives us a chance to compete for an Island championship."

 

This year the Atlantic Championships will be held at the Jack Byrne Arena, in Torbay NFLD,

April 5th to 8th.
