Blackfoot Chiefs will be re-named "Wolverines Hockey Club" starting next year. We'll keep the same colors but they will be re-doing the logo and jerseys and all the branding.
They are shifting away from any reference to geography, similar to how Lake Bonavista/Midnapore merged to become the Knights Hockey Club a few years ago. Probably makes it easier in the future if they have to do any re-alignments or neighborhood shifts.
The positive is that all kids get to keep their home/away game jerseys this year and we can do any modifications we want to them.
Our team took the opportunity to put the kids names on the backs of the jerseys. It was a nice surprise for them to start the new year.
