Before heading to the Hall of Fame, the group also took in a Toronto Blue Jays game, making it a full day of celebration for players, coaches and families. Approximately 60 people attended the trip.

The season-ending celebration also came with another reason for excitement as all 17 players from this year's U11AA squad are expected to return together next season at the U12AA level.

The championship roster featured Jack Coveney, Jantzen Taylor, Ronan Goselin, Kaden Grills, Luke Lipscombe, Lucy Christie, Jonathan Dewhurst, Jonah Vogler, Charlie Clements, Jackson Faught, Gavin Thomas, Mason Smith, Oscar Selby, Case Hedges, Nash Bloomfield, Brandon Devereaux and Nash Prentice.

Behind the bench, Bobby Christie served as head coach with assistant coaches Jeremy Heffernan, Mark Prentice and Steve Thomas. Jeff Taylor was the team's trainer, while Hayley Vogler served as manager.

With the entire roster returning next season, the Petes will now look to build on a year that ended with a championship and one memorable celebration to match.
