Dear Shamrock Families, it is with a very heavy heart that I inform those of you who don't already know of a young, Lambeth U9 MD2 boy who has tragically lost his life recently.
Lambeth Minor Hockey has lost #90 Dante Caranci, his teammates lost a friend, and his family lost a son & brother. The hockey community at-large has now largely been informed, and everyone who has now heard this news is mourning with the Caranci family.
It is heartbreaking. And it hurts a lot losing one of our own Shamrock Hockey League players - especially in our youngest age division. He is gone way too soon.
The Shamrock is asking that all U9 games Sunday, Dec 22nd have a 90 second moment of silence before commencing their games to honour young Dante. This can be done by running down the clock 90 seconds, or staying silent for that period of time.
Lastly, there are stickers for sale that honour Dante. These stickers can be purchased from London Sports Excellence, and the proceeds will go to the Caranci family. Shamrock teams can contact Chris at London Sports Excellence via email to purchase:

Thoughts & prayers to the Caranci Family at this very difficult time,
Adam Oblak
President
Shamrock Hockey League
