DEMONS JUNIORS - 17U ROUND 1 WIN!

First game. First win. 💙❤️

A proud and memorable moment for our Demons Mustangs U17s team as they kicked off the Winter season.

Eli and Dmitri led the scoreboard with two goals each, while Marcus earned Hardest Worker for his relentless effort, and Liv took out MVP. That said, this was a true team performance — every single player stepped up, brought the intensity, and played for each other.

Coach Rod summed it up perfectly:
“An outstanding team performance — everyone played well, contributed, and backed each other. A fantastic way to start the season, and a great group of kids to be part of.”

Bring on the rest of the season! 🔥

Big news for our 17U Demons! 🔥

We’re excited to share an incredible coaching update.
As part of our collaboration with the Mustangs, we’d like to welcome Brody Lindal to our regular coaching squad.

He'll be joining an already outstanding lineup of Rod Johns (head coach), Todd Cutter, Bryan Mackenzie (goalie coach), Jon Moses, Scott Timmins (off-ice gym), and Lyndsay Buchanan (mobility) to help guide our inaugural 17U team in the 2026 season.

Hailing from North America, Brody most recently played in Canada with the Richmond Sockeyes and made a huge impact with the Mustangs last season. We’re thrilled to have him bring his experience and energy to our program.

He said: “Super excited to be a part of the coaching staff and to pass on some of my knowledge to the next generation of young Aussies.”

Welcome to the team, Brody! 💪
