Congratulations to the Waterloo Ravens U18 BB team on winning gold at the 2025 Starsfest Tournament in Markham-Stouffville! The Ravens finished 1st of 8 teams after a 5-game round robin. They carried their momentum into the championship game with strong effort, determination, and great teamwork. They captured the gold medal with a 2–0 victory over the Caledon Cyclones in the finals, scoring both goals within just seven seconds of each other. Great start to the 2025-26 season!

Congratulations to the girls - they put together some excellent hockey this weekend to win the Waterloo Cup in OT on Saturday, and the League Championship in a tight 1-0 game. As we spoke about after the game today, a season is filled with ups and downs. It's always nice to end on an up, but I'm particularly proud of how the girls supported each other throughout, it brought out the best in everyone. On behalf of the 2024/2025 Ravens U13-2 coaching staff, thank you to the parents, and best wishes to all the girls! -Coach James

It’s been an exciting March for the U18 B Ravens. Following their gritty win over Kitchener in early March to capture the West Division title, the girls continued their winning ways to beat the Cazenovia Chiefs and Flamborough Falcons, both home and away, to earn a hard-won spot in the OWHA League Championship in Toronto on March 29th. After a shaky start where they fell behind 2-0 to the North Durham Blades, the Ravens battled back with a goal in each of the 2nd and 3rd periods to tie it up at 2-2 and force the game into sudden-death 4 on 4 overtime. To the relief of their parents, the girls wasted no time and at 1 minute and 31 seconds into overtime, the U18B Ravens banged the puck home to clinch the win and became Southern League Champions. Huge congratulations to all the girls and the coaching staff for achieving this rare feat! Provincials here we come!!

The U11 HL Team 3 won the 2025 Survive the Hive tournament in Oakville. The team beat two teams from Huntsville, two teams from Oakville, a team from Wilmot and one from Burlington on their way to a 6-0 record. They were able to clinch the final with a thrilling 2-1 overtime win with 4.1 seconds left.

The U18 B Ravens took home the West Division title with a gritty, team-first performance in Kitchener on March 5th. Not only did our girls pull off a season-first 1-0 win over Kitchener to tie the playoff series at 3 points apiece, but they had to battle through an additional 10 minute overtime period to determine the eventual winner. Overtime ended in a 0-0 tie to send the game into shootouts. Thanks to superb goaltending and our laser-focused 5th shooter, the Ravens prevailed to take home the West Division title. Congratulations girls!!

Congratulations to the U13-1 team on their gold medal win in the annual Oakville Survive the Hive Tournament. After four round robin games, which included coming back late from two goals down to salvage a tie in their second game, the team was 3-0-1 and held down first overall in the 14 team division. A hard-fought win against a difficult Grand River team in the semis led to a birth in the finals against the hometown Oakville Hornets. Two early first period goals held up thanks to some great goaltending and solid defensive and team play. Thanks to all the coaches and parents, and of course the players for another great weekend filled with fun and growth for this great team of girls!

This past weekend the U13 DS team brought home Gold from Orangeville. The team went undefeated, playing in 5 games and did not allow any goals against. This U13 group is not only talented and skilled on the ice, but hard working, committed and supportive of one another. Their work ethic and passion for the game of hockey was forefront this weekend in the team's first tournament of the year! A huge thanks to the players, parents and coaches that made this weekend a success. GO RAVENS!

U15-1 team brings home Gold at the Kyla Kowalik Memorial Tournament in Wilmot. The team went undefeated through 5 games with solid team play, only allowing a single goal against! On top of winning, the team also took home 3 of 4 trophies from the skills competition events. Congrats to the team and coaches on a great weekend!

It was a hard fought 6 games for the U15 1 team playing with only 11 skaters. After a slow start and loss in the team's first game, some line juggling and great team play led the team into the semis. That is where the "Revenge Tour" started and the girls beat both teams they lost to in the round robin. The Gold Medal game was action packed needing a crazy overtime and a shootout! A great weekend where hard work and teamwork truly paid off! Congrats on winning GOLD!!

Fantastic result in the North Halton Twisters tournament including a semi-final game that went to the shootout! Congratulations Ravens on taking home the Silver. Coach Adam.

Congratulations to the Waterloo Ravens U13 HL Team 1 on their gold medal at the North Halton Twisters Fall Classic Tournament. The team went 5-0 and got better with every game. It was a hard-fought final against the team from Kanata but the girls stuck with it, played an amazing team game and scored a few late 3rd period goals to take the final 3-1. Great work team!

The U13 HL 2 girls have returned home from Fergus as tournament champions! At times it seemed that they were facing brick walls instead of goalies, but persistence and hard work paid off in the end - they played their finest hockey in the championship game and were rewarded with the win! Congratulations to each and every girl - it's a lot of fun being able to watch you give everything you've got shift after shift! - Coach James
