Belmont Bantam Local League teammates Julia Verhoef, left, and Alex Potma celebrated after their line scored a goal against Port Stanley LL1 during the annual Aylmer Christmas holiday hockey tournament at East Elgin Community Complex on Saturday, Dec. 27. Port Stanley won that game 4-1 and earlier that day doubled Ayr 4-2. Port Stanley entered the knockout round of the tournament in third place and faced Ayr again, this time for the bronze medal. Port Stanley won that game as well 4-1. Belmont had a challenging tournament as they were short players due to injuries and Christmas holiday commitments.
