Dimaline312000 51 Report post Posted March 14, 2011 Another great weekend of Sled Hockey has just past. The Grand Rapids Sled Wings once again only won one game which was Vs Fort Wayne/Turnstone Flyers 9-0 Win for GR. The Pittsburgh Penguins Sled Hockey team won the first ever Mid American Great Lakes Sled Hockey League Alex Knapp Cup Championship and punched their ticket to the National Festival April 1st - 3rd. The Pittsburgh Penguins and the Michigan Sled Dogs will both be going to nationals as the top 2 teams get to go. League play is over for the season but the Sled Wings have one more Tournament close to Detroit just as a Tournament to raise awareness about sled hockey around Michigan. Unfortuneately the Grand Rapid Sled Wings Adult Team will Not be going to Nationals as we are to new and don't have the experince nor the high caliber play that is required to go to the National Disabled Festival. Thanks to everyone your support over the season. On a side note being that the Adult Sled Wings have only been around for two seasons we are in need of financial help to help play for new sled and eqipment and travel costs. Please contact the Grand Rapids Wheelchair Sports Assciation or let me know if you are able and I will put you in contact with someone who can help. We are always looking for and greatly apprecaite donations. Thanks and Let's Go Red Wings!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
