Grande Prairie Minor Hockey U13 AA teams to transition to GPAC next season
The Grande Prairie Minor Hockey Association (GPMHA) and Grande Peace Athletic Club (GPAC) have announced that starting next season, the two GPMHA U13 AA (formerly Peewee AA) teams will be moving and competing under the GPAC name and colours.
In a joint statement, the organizations say the transition of the U13 AA teams will help provide the next step in the growth of GPAC being able to provide elite level hockey to players in the region.
“Development of players and coaches throughout our zone has always been a priority for our program and we look forward to the opportunity to work with the U13 players and coaches,” said GPAC President, Tyler Stojan.
GPMHA Technical Director Brett Stephenson, says moving the U13 AA team from league hockey to club hockey is in alignment with other hockey associations across Alberta.
