TCS Titans Hockey 2012

The two biggest boys in this house spent some time together at the hockey rink this winter.  The TCS Titans' hockey team participated in two tournaments (as well as an exhibition game against Dundas, which they won!) 

Levi enjoyed developing his skills and having fun with his friends on the ice, and Rick always loves any opportunity to put on his own skates and help out. 

After watching his brother at one of the practices, David said, "that just makes me want to play!"  (I'm glad he has a few more years to grow before he tries out for the hockey team.)  

Work and things of that nature kept me from going to the tournaments this year, but Taylor went with her friend to the tournament in Stouffville...(the girls were on a break between semesters.)  

I was very thankful that she went as the "Schenk photographer"...so thankful, in fact, that I let her take MY camera!

  The following pictures were taken and edited by her.  ♥Thank you so much Taylor!!!♥

Here are the "sports reports" that were put together by the team manager and published by TCS:

HOCKEY DAY IN GUELPH CANADA

On Thursday, January 19, fifteen determined hockey players rose early in the morning to travel for the annual Guelph District Hockey Tournament in Fergus.  Always a highlight of the sporting season, the hockey team practiced hard in preparation for a competitive day of hockey that included Christian schools from Guelph, Burlington Christian Academy (BCA), Kitchener and Brantford. 

The competition at this year’s tournament proved to be very strong for the Trinity Titans.  Although we began the day as the reigning Guelph District Christian School Hockey Tournament “AA” Champs, the day ended without a victory.    The team improved with each game and the players were a pleasure to coach and supervise.    Congratulations to all the players!  Well done! 

The team would especially like to thank our coaches, John Regeling, Jack Olewniczak and Tim Valters for all their help and all the parents who were able to drive.  We are looking forward to our next tournament in Stouffville on Friday, January 27.  We will keep you informed!

Hockey Night in Burlington

The hockey season at TCS has come to an end.   Fifteen young men strapped up their laces and took to the ice on Friday, January 27 in Stouffvulle to represent our school at the final tournament of the season.  Under the tutelage of head coach, Tim Valters and assistants John Regeling and Jack Olewniczak, the team improved significantly from the previous tournament. 

The tournament included teams from Stouffville, Barrie, St. Catharines and two from Burlington, including BCA and ourselves.  The team was faced with some tough competition and finished the tournament with a record of one win, one tie and two loses.  The scores included the following:  Stouffville 3, Trinity 2; Barrie 3, Trinity 3; Trinity 8, St. Catharines 3; and BCA 3, Trinty 1. 

The entire coaching staff was very excited about the level of commitment and effort from the hockey team.  After a rousing exhibition game against Dundas Calvin Christian School on Thursday, the team transformed from a group of hockey players into a team.  

A special thanks to all our volunteer parent drivers and the coaching team.  We are very thankful for the opportunity to lead this wonderful group of students and we look forward to another exciting season next year.
