Allison Stevenson, a Walton-area native who has found success as a member of the Brock University Badgers women's hockey team, has been named the captain of the team for the 2025/2026 season.

The local girls' hockey season continued last weekend with a mix of exhibition and regular season games after the excitement of the Oakville Hornets' Harvest Classic tournament for a number of Huron Heat teams the previous weekend.

The Sebringville Sting are champions of the 2025 Ontario Challenge Cup after storming through six straight elimination games to defeat the previously-unbeaten Waterdown Hammer by a score of 9-5 in extra innings Sunday at Victoria Park in Ingersoll.

After a rough weekend, the Wingham Ironmen are in second-to-last place in the North Pollock Division of the Provincial Junior Hockey League standings with a record of 1-4 and just two points.

Seven Huron Heat teams travelled east over the weekend to take part in the Oakville Hornets' annual Harvest Classic tournament, though none were able to bring home any gold.
