Another Canadian Wheelchair Floorball Hockeyball National tournament is now in the books where a changing of the guard took place. Team Canada White ended up winning the championship “Cherry Bowl” by a final score of 8 – 7 over the defending champions, team Canada Black. Canada Black was up by a score of 7 – 6 with a little over 2 minutes remaining, when team Captain Jaimie Borisoff scored the game tying and game winning goal with what seemed like one hand tied behind his back, which is extra hard when pushing a wheelchair against a defending championship winning team. Jaimie Evansdad Borisoff took home 1st Star with 3 goals and 1 assist in the final, Beaudy Beaudin took home 2nd Star with 5 goals in his wheelchair debut, and Quin Gieni walked away with 3rd Star with 1 goal and 4 delicious, however bittersweet, red apples in the final game.
Leading scorers for the tournament were Kyle Gieni with 32 points (20G 12A), his brother Quin Gieni with 30 points (22G 8A), Parviz Saberi had 19 points (9G 10A), Jaimie Borisoff scored 8 with 5 helpers totalling 13 points, Kerri Jang netted a hat-trick in her second game and had 9 Ambrosia Apples for a total of 12 points, Philipe Bonnot was in net for all of one half but still managed to bag 7 Gala Apples for 7 total points, Darcy Schneider totalled 3 goals and 2 assists and while getting traded for future considerations halfway through the tournament, will now have his day with the championship Cherry Bowl at home in Maple Ridge, Beaudy Beaudin managed to pot 5 in the final while winning player of the game for his team and earning rookie of the tournament honours, on the other side of the court in net was former 3 time national champion Carol Martin who helped out thrice earning 3 apples while tending goal, Daryl Yuen, who was promised a championship, will have to wait at least another year for a crack at the Bowl, had 1 goal and 1 helper for his team, and rounding out the pack were brothers Greg and Dave Beaudin each earning their respective teams 2 Big Green Apples.
Quin Gieni won the hardest shot competition with a 113 Km/h snapper, while Parviz Saberi took the accuracy competition by storm and went a shocking 4 for 10.
