ESTEVAN - The Estevan Minor Hockey Association provided some fun for younger players prior to the Christmas break.
Eighteen teams competed in the annual U9 tournament, which was held from Friday to Sunday. Thanks to the cross-ice format used for the U9 division, it meant multiple games could be played at once at each venue.
The top four teams from the round robin advanced to the playoffs.
The Yorkton Terriers defeated the Estevan Whitecap Resources Cubs to win the gold-medal game. Arcola and Weyburn were the other teams in the medal round.
