Knights U14: Champions of the
2023 Leaside Invitational Tournament
The North York Knights U14 Select team recently participated in the 2023 Leaside Invitational Tournament. The event was held between February 2nd and 5th, 2023. The Knights entered the event with high expectations following a successful campaign in the NYHL. The format for the tournament was a 3-game round robin, with the top 2 teams advancing to the finals on Sunday. The U14 Select team started the tournament with a convincing 6-0 win over East York on Friday followed by another shutout of 2-0 over Forest Hill later that evening. On Saturday, a hard fought victory of 5-2 was earned over the Leaside Flames Red allowing the Knights to gain a spot in the Sunday final. The Knights faced the Forest Hill Force for the U14 Red Tournament Championship and put together a strong defensive performance, holding Forest Hill team to only 1 goal and winning the game 3-1 in regulation time.
Congratulations to the players, coaches and the many parent volunteers that have helped make this year a successful one for the U14 Knights Select team!
