The Mooretown Lady Flags U11 and U13 were flawless to win two International Silver Stick titles at the Sarnia finals.
The Lady Flag U11 team beat Sarnia Jr Lady Sting 4-1 to open the tournament and never looked back. They beat St. Marys 5-0, Sylvania 6-0, and the Lambton Attack 4-0 to move to the semi finals where they beat the Sarnia Jr. Lady Sting 4-1.
The Lady Flags then beat undefeated South Huron 1-0 in the final.
In the U13 B division, the Lady Flags beat Halton Hills 7-0 in the opening game – the first of four round robin wins. The Flags topped Seattle 12-1, the Lambton Attack 6-2 and downed St. Marys Rock in the semi finals 7-0.
It was an all Lambton final, with Mooretown scoring the lone goal to beat the Lambton Attack 1-0 and take the Silver stick title.
