Leamington Flyers’ prospects watch with anticipation during Saturday’s evaluation camp. After playing only a handful of games last fall, the Flyers look to build on a successful 2019-20 season, but have lost some key members of their lineup. The GOJHL season begins September 24.

New coach announcement soon
Flyers prepare for season with evaluation camp By Fred Groves Rychel and Griffin Robinson. The dyLEAMINGTON — When your top namic duo — who split their time betwo scorers, a veteran defenseman and a tween Leamington and Chatham last solid goaltender leave your team, there year — combined for 54 goals. are a lot of big holes to fill.

Noticeable absentees on the ice at this “We were an older team (in 2019-20), year’s evaluation camp were Maddux we had eight 20-year-olds and now we
return with three 20-year-olds,” says Solcz. Besides having to rebuild a roster, Solcz has had to find a new head coach as Cam Crowder, who guided the club to a 38-9-1-2 record, just eight points back of front running London, has opted not to return. The GM will be making that announcement in the very near future. Look for Wyatt O’Neil to carry a bulk of the offensive load this season. The forward looked strong on the ice over the weekend and the Flyers hope the veteran can duplicate or better his numbers of 2019-20, which included 24 goals and 32 points.
“Just because they haven’t been able to play, they are working very hard. I am happy with the group we have,” said Scholz Returnees on the ice at the evaluation camp were defensemen Ryan Clark and Koen Taves, along with forwards O’Neil, Julien Gervais, Sylvain Lessard, Gavin Grundner, Darby Lemieux, Gabe Piccolo, Nick Beneteau, Jason Daraiche and Kale Couvillon. Expect last year’s outstanding netminder Ryan Polidori, who had three shutouts to go along with a 2.42 GAA, to return. The GOJHL season begins Sept. 24.
