LMHA 2007 small

Welcome to the official web site of the London Minor Hockey Association. We are located in London, Ontario, Canada, where our home ice is at Argyle Arena on Wavell Street.

Operating since 1956, LMHA is the name of the original hockey association in London, and we retain that title with pride. The city is now divided into 5 hockey associations, operating under the Greater London Hockey Association banner. Check out
www.GLHA.ca , the GLHA web site for information and links to the 4 other associations, as well as the schedules and the standings for the Forest City Hockey League and Community Hockey League.

Thanks to Gene Taylor, one of the original six members of the organizing committee of the London Minor Hockey Association, for providing important information relating to our first year of operation. Other members who attended the first meeting were Stan Stokes, Dr. Gordon Clark, Dr. Herb Andrews, Jack Webb and Grant Sangster. Jack's bantam team and Gene's midget team, both advanced from this area to the provincial championships in our first hockey season. Doug Jarrett played on the midget team and eventually went on to a very successful career with the Chicago Blackhawks.

THE END OF ANOTHER GREAT SEASON

This past weekend LMHA had their Round Up to bring the 2007/2008 season to a close. It all started at 8:45 am on Saturday April 19th at Wheable for the Awards Banquet for all of our LMHA teams. In the first session the Mites, Tykes and Novice Houseleague were recognized, the second session included the Novice, Atom Forest City and Atom Houseleague. During the 3rd session we saw the Forest City Peewee teams plus the Peewee and Bantam Houseleague, lastly in the 4th session we recognized the Forest City Bantam and Midget teams. Besides the team and individual trophies being handed out there we some very special awards handed out as well. The first award was the George Bray award given to Jo Ann Fredin for all her volunteer work that she has done for our board for the last 18 years, most will know Jo Ann as our “penny pinching” treasurer and for the last couple of years the “tournament chair”. Unfortunately for the Board Jo Ann had decided to “retire” as a board member but as she said at the banquet “I am not stepping down” “I am taking a small step to the side” . Congratulations Jo Ann on receiving the George Bray Award!!!! The second “special” award that was given out was the Neil Barker Memorial award. The Neil Barker award was presented to the LMHA coach or volunteer that best exemplifies what Neil believed in & stood for, during his many years with our association and the first Neil Barker Award was given to Dan Dunsmore. Congratulations Dan! During our 4th and final session there was an addition to the program that hmmmm some how got past our president Jerry Pickering. Jerry was honoured and thanked as he is stepping down from the Presidential role for next season. Jerry was given an LMHA jersey inside a plaqued shadow box. Thanks Jerry for your great leadership the last three years!!!!! A great day was enjoyed by all and we would like to thank Kevin Scanlan for helping us out by arranging for Wheable as our awards venue. Also thanks to all of you who helped out in many ways to make the Awards Banquet successful. After a very full day for the “kids” it was the “adults” turn to head off to the Round Up Dance at Trissa’s in the evening . This years dance theme was “Ultimate 80’s” and few came dressed from the “favourite” decade. A good time was had by all who were in attendance and thanks goes out to Sherry de Waal for her organization of the dance, and for the table favours of Rubik’s cubes, slinky’s and GI Joes….which were all played with. Then on Sunday morning after some had very little sleep the LMHA AGM was held at Trissa’s with a breakfast before the meeting. There were just over 50 people in attendance with some past board members present to play tribute once again to Jo Ann where she received some flowers and an LMHA jersey in a shadow box. When the meeting and elections were over the 2008/09 LMHA Board was in place with some new faces and some old faces with new positions. Congratulations Board Members!!! Here is the new elected board.

TRIPLE CROWN CHAMPS
Congratulations to the Forest City Minor Bantam 1 team who this weekend completed their season with a Championship win at the MD Alliance Championships in Hamilton.   Not only did this great team coached by Joe Boyce, Boomer Boyce, Garry Cumby and Jim Heskin win the Alliance Championship (for the 2nd year in a row )they were also Leauge (again for the 2nd year in a row) and Playoff Champs this year. 
These boys have a way of making all their games very exciting, after a slow start on Friday tieing Kitchener Red and 1 - 1 and losing to the Hamilton Tigers 5 - 4 things were looking a little bleak for Thunder heading into Saturday's must win game.  Thunder came out a different team on Saturday afternoon defeating the Hamilton Phantoms 2 - 0 to earn themselves a place in the semi finals.  In the semi's Thunder once again faced off against the Kitchener Red team (who Thunder has played a total of 3 times this year coming out with two ties and a 1 - 0 win.)  Thunder dominated this game as well and won by a score of 3 - 0 to secure their spot in the Championship game against the Hamilton Phantoms.  Thunder again came out strong and had many chances and were finally able to get on the scoreboard in the 2nd period to make it a 1 - 0 game and with awesome goaltending were able to the keep the Phantoms from scoring and with 2 seconds left of the game Thunder got an empty netter to win the game 2 - 0.  Great Job Thunder and thanks to Jordan Vajdik, Dylan Serre, Spencer Bradbrun, Nick De Luca, Jordan Cumby, Cody Di Domenico, Codie Morton, Dylan Dietze, Cam Dymock, Kody McGee-Baynham, Raymond Cruickshank, Riley Pope, Tanner Almas, Tyson Brown, Scott McCabe-Boyce, Matthew Johnson and our A/P Braden Hinsperger for an awesome weekend and season of hockey.  WAY TO GO THUNDER!!!!!!!
