Hillsdale Athletes

The 2022 GBMSL Season came to an end a few weeks ago, and the results were very good for the inaugural season of the Haymakers.  Over 100 kids participated this summer, the largest membership we've had to date.  We look to build on this for next season. U5 & U7 (Sponsored By Simcoe County Elementary Teachers Federation) Kids practiced each week in Phelpston, and got to play 4 games at the end of the season in Elmvale.  Season was capped off with a BBQ sponsored by Foodland (Elmvale).

There are just a few games left on the regular season schedule because of weather, and the Haymakers have had a great regular season and are now setting their sites on the playoffs. Playoff action starts next Monday.  Check the website for the latest schedule. U9 The U9s had themselves a perfect regular season going 8-0 to secure the #1 seed in Group A.  Their opponent will be the 4th ranked Vasey Giants. https://gbmsl.ca/Rounds/25454/2022_U9_Playoffs_-_Group_A/

On the eve of our GBMSL season we reflect on what has gotten us to this point this season. First of all, we have registered 108 young athletes this season.  108 is a 50% increase over our pre-pandemic registration of 72.  We've worked really hard to elevate our program and keep improving in order to provide an exciting & fun culture where our kids can develop and excel.  We thank parents and athletes alike for giving us the opportunity to provide them with our programming. We are thrilled that so many kids will be wearing the Navy & Gold this season.

Appreciate all who tried out this season.  We hope for next season to have increased interest such that we can continue to build a more competitive stream for kids in the area to strive for.   Congratulations to the following players who will represent the Haymakers this summer at the U13 level.  Lots of work ahead but should be fun.

We are just a week away from Tryouts starting for our U11 & U13 Competitive Teams. Hopefully the weather moves in the right direction as we head into next week. Here is a bit of information that may be helpful.
