Neepawa found itself well represented on the roster of the Yellowhead AAA Female Bantam Chiefs. There were six players on the 2015-2016 team that have all played their minor hockey in Neepawa. 

They include Caleigh McLaughlin, Sadie McIntosh, Cheyenne Davie, Juliana Davis,  Zoey Heino and Rylee Gluska.

The young ladies have been part of a very committed and passionate hockey program in Neepawa, that was started in the early 2000s by Myles Cathcart and Dave Clark. Their efforts began a program that remains vibrant today, as the torch was passed to a new group of people like myself, Mike Anderson, Troy Brister and Ryan McLaughlin who are also eager to take on the coaching, management and recruiting of players to keep Neepawa’s female program strong. 

Chris Turner has also taken up the baton with the help of Ryan McLaughlin with the newest group of the youngest female players coming into the program.

Neepawa has a reputation of consistently churning out very talented and skilled female hockey players and with the foundation that has been created here, we expect that to continue.
