Sunday was an early 6:30 am start and the Junior Grizzlies tied the league leading South Okanagan Atoms 3-3, knocking them out of the playoffs.

The league’s final  game against the Kelowna Rocket Peewee Girls team was a close battle, but the Revelstoke Atom team was determined to win. Their determination resulted in a 3-2 win and they took home the Division Title banner ending a great season.
