The Atom AA Westmount Wings fell to the Pierrefonds Barracudas by a score of 32 on October 16 during the hockey team\u2019s first inter-city hockey match of the 2021-22 season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the nine and 10-year-old players, it was also the first game since the beginning of the COVID pandemic more than a year and-a-half ago. Still, they played well and almost matched the Barracudas, who hadn\u2019t been out of action nearly as long. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe only had three weeks of practice,\u201d head coach Shayne Jackson said in an interview with the Independent following the game, adding that the Wings \u201cwere grinding them hard\u201d while out on the ice with the opponents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jackson said the Wings all performed exceptionally well. \u201cThey will literally run through a wall for me and I am really proud of every single one of them. They played really hard.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the coach, the Barracudas had played in several tournaments since the beginning of last year, providing them with an edge against the Wings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was also the first inter-city hockey game held at the Westmount recreation centre since the start of the pandemic in March 2020.
