DPTodd Jr. Girls Invitational Tournament - Jr Viqueens played 3 games at DPTodd over the weekend. We defeated DPTodd 76-16 on Friday, and advanced to play the Duchess 10s. The tenacious defence and press were beyond us and we lost 71-17. In the game for third place, we won over PGSS 68-23 in a strong display of team effort and comraderie.
The team would like to thank Ron Fawcett for driving on Friday, as well as for his support and 'good humour'. It was great to see the Fawcetts, the Nakas, the Friesens, Mr. Gauthier, and Mr. Kuharchuk out to cheer for our team between shopping and Christmas parties over the weekend!

Housekeeping - $$$ - Players are reminded to get their team fees (see Team Expectations) in to the office right away. Game play is dependent on this. If you can pay the full $350 immediately, that is appreciated! Some parents have spoken to me and made arrangements for partial payments - which may be a good idea right about this time. Thank you for taking care of this matter. (Players and parents are reminded that fund-raising could help to defray these costs).
