Welcome back to our Peewee AA team who travelled to Prague during the Christmas Break.
Between December 27 and January 7 the PeeWee AA Team traveled to Europe. The 15 players and 25 family members visited Prague Czech Republic, Salzburg Austria and many places in Germany including Munich. The group was accompanied by OMHA President Robert Ring, a real gentleman.
Included in the activities the group did between hockey games: Skiing in the Austrian Alps, attending the RedBull Pro-game in Salzburg, Cesky Krumlov, outdoor concert and fireworks for New Year’s Eve in Salzburg, tour of a salt mine, Dachau concentration camp, dinner at the Hofbrauhaus, and tours of many famous castles, churches and cities.
The boys played in some exciting arenas, including on the Munich Olympic Rink and the new $80 million RedBull Academy. Despite a busy activity schedule, 60-minute games and playing on Olympic-sized ice pads against older players, the team played six games; going 5-and-1 and winning a tournament in Prague. The boys met with the players from the opposing teams after each game to exchange gifts, Instagram accounts and tons of laughs.
What an experience with memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you to BMHA and OMHA for supporting us to go on this trip.
