Arthur U11 Girls Claim Gold & Bronze!
Arthur sent two U11 girls teams to Hanover for their year end tournament last weekend, and both came home with medals in the Intercounty Softball Association B Division!

Arthur White defeated Kincardine Blue to open the tournament, then tied Kincardine.  Meanwhile,  Arthur Blue lost their first game to Drayton, before defeating Ponsonby Green to secure a spot in the semi finals.

This meant the two Arthur teams would meet in the semi finals on Saturday night.  After a spirited game, Arthur White came out on top, securing their spot in the Gold medal game.  

On Sunday, both teams persevered through the wet weather, and Arthur Blue rebounded with a win over Kincardine to claim Bronze.  Not to be outdone, Arthur White defeated Drayton to claim the gold medal.

Congratulations to both Arthur teams!
