The Alliston Junior C Hornets are ready to start the new season beginning with the club’s 10th annual Junior C pre-season tournament.
The tournament draws Junior C teams from around the province who are eager to get their new line-up on the ice in their first competition of the year.
This year’s tournament will showcase 12 teams representing several Ontario Junior C Leagues.

The semi-final and final games, if tied, will go on to a five minute three-on-three sudden death overtime period.
