Saturday’s cold, windy rainy weather didn’t stop the Tim Hortons Peewee Terrapins from showing the Rocky Mountain House Rebels what Football in Drumheller is all about.
The Terrapins hosted the Rebels Saturday (October 3) morning in their mid-season home opener and went home with a 39-6 win.
“It was an amazing game,” Coach Thomas Laffin said.
He said in the first half of the game everything fell together and the team was, “all pumped up and super excited.”
This was the first win of the season for the Peewee team.
“It was a great game. The offense was on fire the rocky game was just amazing. These guys were breaking tackles left, right and centre. They were excited and they played a great game,” he told The Mail.
Coach Laffin said it has taken a bit to get all the players in the right spot, pumped up and ready to go.
“It looks like it is going to be a good end to the season,” he said.
“I had a bucket of water poured over me at the end (of the game). The players get a kick out of it. Win or lose if we play a good game then they have all the rights to do it,” Laffin said.
The Terrapins will now host Innisfail on Saturday, October 10 at DVSS field. Kickoff time is 10 a.m.
