16 Parts Make A Team!
The Tigers capped off a memorable season with a hard fought final weekend of hockey with a win in the championship. Sixteen boys agreed at the beginning of the season that they would give their best on and off the ice to each other and spent the whole 2012-2013 season playing as a true team.

The work ethic, communication, unselfish play and grit by each Tiger made for a near perfect season. Heading into the league championship, the Tigers spent the regular season growing together, learning how to function as a team and each boy skating, passing and having a lot of fun.
Although all sixteen brought different skill sets, abilities and gifts to the team, the true strength of the Tigers was their commitment to play 'Tiger' hockey every game. Every player understood that one alone could not win a game but all sixteen working together could be successful - and that it was not about the score at the end of the game - it was more about the value of being a part of the team and sharing in the integrity, respect and significance each member gave and experienced.
Hats off to all our fellow teams and especially the parents who cheered from the stands. Our desire was to skate off the ice not just with a trophy but with our heads held high knowing that 'Tiger' hockey was a season about skating, passing and having fun.
