AMHERST – March break is here and that can mean only one thing for Cumberland County hockey players.
Beginning Thursday they will compete in the four-day Cumberland County Minor Hockey Associations 2013 Ross Anderson Pharmasave House League tournament in Amherst and Springhill.
“We have 28 teams participating in the tournament,” said Paul Williams, first-year tournament chairperson. “And seven of those teams are from Cumberland County.”
The tournament host’s teams in four different divisions - Atom, Peewee, Bantam and Midget - and teams come from throughout Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.
Williams invites everybody to come out and watch the tournament.
“I wish the best of luck to all the teams and hope the tournament will be a fun experience for all the players participating and the families watching,” said Williams.
