BARRINGTON/SHELBURNE, N.S. – Twenty-one teams took to the ice over the past two weekends at the Shelburne Arena and Sandy Wickens Memorial Arena in Barrington for the Shelburne County Minor Hockey Association’s (SCMHA) annual Fall Classic tournament.
The tournament “was a great success,” said Jennifer Sears, SCMHA president.
“The support from the fans over the two weekends was outstanding, which boosted our home teams’ confidence to see everyone in the stands.
