The Flamborough Tyke 2 Sabres opened their season with a tough test against the Hespeler Shamrocks last Sunday.
The Sabres came out with the intent of improving on their pre-season performance against Hespeler and the first period saw end-to-end action with plenty of chances.

Throughout the contest, the Sabres showed grit and resolve, resulting in a big improvement over the team’s previous performance in Hespeler.
SabreStars of the game include Ryan “Wrecking Ball” Riggs, Billy “the Jungle Cat” Moore and Gerrett “The Iceman” Cottrell.
