Viking players, cheerleaders, and coaches celebrating the win with their banner after a motorcade
In early May, Valmont Academy and King's Point played host to the 2A Boys Ball Hockey Provincial Championship. The nine team tournament saw schools represented from all over the province. It was an amazing event from start to finish. The Valmont Academy Vikings came away with the win after an undefeated record of 5-0. The championship game came down to the final seconds as the Vikings staved off the Main River Academy Warriors in the all Central West final to a score of 7-6. The Valmont Vikings were victorious and celebrated with a motorcade that ran through town.
Coaches Adam Matthews and Stephen Earle credit the win to the hard work and determination of the players in the closely contested tournament. Valmont Academy thanks its school council, the parents, and the entire community for their outpouring of support. The players (Brenden Keats, Matthew Burt, Skyler Budgell, Brandon Burt, Douglas Squires, Jordan Janes, Kobe Welshman, Nicholas Warr, Riley Burt, Colten Warford, and Kaelan Rideout) are to be commended for their fine play and sportsmanship.
Great job, as always, Valmont Academy!
