NTBHL PLAYERS TO FACE THE BEST BALL HOCKEY PLAYERS IN THE WORLD
Three players from the New Tec Ball Hockey League (NTBHL) were selected back in Septemeber of 2018 to represent Canada at the ISBHF World Ball Hockey Championships. They will now experience the true Team Canada feeling in Kosice, Slovakia on June 14th when they meet their teammates from all across Canada.
Giuliana Pallotta, Justin Maiolino and Gianluca Pallotta were scouted at the CBHA National Championships in Winnipeg in August of 2018 while representing the NTBHL as they competed against the best teams and players in Canada.
This will be Giuliana's 2nd time attending the World event . She was a member of the National team in 2017 with Canada placing 3rd behind the Czech Republic and USA.
For Justin and Gianluca, they are the first Men from the NTBHL to be selected to a Team Canada roster.
We are extremely proud of their hard work and dedication to the sport over the years and can say that their selection to the National team is well deserved. They are excellent representatives of our community.
Big thanks from New Tecumseth ball hockey players heading to Worlds
May 15, 2019 Alliston Herald
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the many volunteers, the members of the New Tecumseth Ball Hockey League, the Town of New Tecumseth, the Kyle Coleman Memorial Fund, The Herald and, of course, the backbone of it all — everyone from our community that came out to support us.
Without all of you this fundraiser would not have been possible.
Growing up in New Tecumseth, we have always known we were fortunate to come from such a tight-knit community. We have each travelled to many towns and cities across North America and Europe and we truly believe the Town of New Tecumseth is one like no other. We are proud to call this our home.
We are extremely excited to head over to Kosice, Slovakia, in just under a month. We are proud to be representing New Tecumseth as part of Team Canada and we intend on making our town and country proud.
Once again, we would also like to thank our families and all those from the community for their generous donations and words of encouragement and who continue to show support as we head to Slovakia.
Giuliana Pallotta, Justin Maiolino, Gianluca Pallotta
