Lakeland club volleyball players wrap up the first round of their Premier tournaments. As they head into Premier II competitions, all nine Rhino’s teams placed in the top four Divisions in the Volleyball Alberta league.

Despite having a fairly young team, the St. Paul U18 Canadiens have worked hard to have a successful season on the ice, winning the NEAHL Tier II banner.

'There wasn't really anything being offered in our local area for that age group, and we want to give our kids everything we can. But at the same time, we want to make sure that they're earning it and that they are putting the work in,' says Lakeland Lightnings Head Coach Joel Miller.

Both the Ashmont boys and girls teams won this year's SPAA senior high basketball banners.

Not long after the Bonnyville Jr. A Pontiacs wrapped up their playoff run, the organization honoured players and the volunteers who helped the team achieve success on and off the ice at the team’s annual awards banquet.
