During the past five years, the Waxers U18 AA team has cemented its place as the most successful U18 hockey team in the province. With a remarkable record that includes winning the 2022 OHF Championship, qualifying for every OMHA Championship Tournament, capturing 16 tournament victories, and claiming five consecutive YSMHL league titles, the achievements speak volumes. Notably, the Waxers U18AA team operates more like a Junior program or 'AAA' team than a typical AA team, with an incredible average My Hockey Rating of 91.20 and more than 250 wins across the past five seasons. Twice ranked #1 overall at the end of the season by My Hockey Rankings, success is no accident. It's not just about talent—it's the direct result of consistent coaching, a relentless commitment to player development, and a strong culture of excellence, discipline, and teamwork on the ice. Off the ice, the Waxers cultivate a sense of brotherhood and camaraderie, with regularly scheduled team activities ensuring a well-rounded, rewarding experience for every player and their family.×
