After getting off to a slow start losing first game 4-3 to the host team Northern Cyclone’s, the team fought back with three impressive wins, 6-4 over Minuteman Flames, 3-2 over Red Rangers, 3-2 shootout win over Red Rangers in Semi-finals to set up a rematch with Cyclones.  Predators get redemption and win Championship game with authority, 7-3.

The 02 PeeWee Elites competed in the Cyclone MLK tournament.  After a 2-1 win over the Cyclones and a 8-1 win over the Boston Stars, they were beat by the Ct Nighthawks. 

The 2 and 1 record was still good enough to earn a Championship game rematch against the Nighthawks.  After falling behind 1-0 the team did not give up and eventually tied the score early in the 2nd period.  The game stayed 1-1 into overtime, where a great pass set up the winning goal.

Coach Perry and his staff are to be complimented in their coaching of this team.

The New England Predators Mites were victorious in a three day Christmas Showcase held at the Overtime Rink in Peabody MA. The team went 6-0 playing the Northern Cyclones and North Shore Shamrocks three times each, winning all six games.

The players displayed great skill with passing techniques and strong skating ability. The coaching staff was proud of how the boys came together and played as a team, putting in their best effort in making it a great three days of hockey.

Congratulations to both the players and coaches for a successful showing.

2001 Elites Give Back

On Saturday December 6th the 01 Perry Elites performed the serving duties at the Cor Unum meal center in Lawrence right after their 1:20 pm game.

A special thanks to the parents that participated washing dishes, helping out in the kitchen and helped the boys with the serving of the meals. The boys all had their duties and performed well. Overall we were told it was a slow night due to the rain but we still served about 130 people. Both the boys and the parents helped out with the cleaning afterward mopping the floor, cleaning the bathrooms and kitchen.

A great eye opener for the boys as well as us parents. Sometimes we forget how blessed we are. The team was very grateful for being able to help. We really enjoyed our selves and might do a return visit. Any other teams looking to participate let me know as they are always looking for volunteers.  

A big congrats to our 2002 New England Predators Premier team for winning the Exeter Turkey Tournament.  

The 2002 team finished 3-0-1.  

Congrats to the 2002 players/coaches and parents!
