The 2025 Kraken Spring ID Camp concluded today โ
Lake Cowichan and the Kraken Junior Hockey Club wish to thank all who participated in the multiple on-ice and off-ice sessions this past weekend ๐
Events included: Goalie and Defence Combines, Practices, Games, All-Star Game, Junior Hockey Roundtable, Parent and Player interactive sessions which included an opening night BBQ, Junior Hockey Roundtable Luncheon and the farewell day Pancake Breakfast.
Thank you to Happy Campers (Lucy-Ann and staff) and Country Grocer for sponsoring the Campโs final game. The final score was 8-5โฆ and the goaltenders did their best to keep the score manageable!
We appreciate Gas N Go (Wayne and staff) for providing their support for the Goalie Combine, Dry Dock Marine (Lucas and staff), and Tsโuubaa-asatx First Nation (Melanie and Community) for their support with the Defence Combine.
A special huge thank you goes out to our Country Grocer (Jenn, Kyle and staff) who provided, prepared and served the delicious meals during all three days of the Camp ๐๐ฝ After various ice sessions, every player and coach appreciated access to the Country Grocer Nutrition kiosks.
To help attend to appetites during travel, our local A&W (Lake Cowichan) provided a cold Root Beer, Teen Burger and Fries to attendees. Thank you to Amber and her crew!
It was good to see local promising prospects. A special recognition to those players and families who travelled from afar to attend.
While there is something called an off-season, it goes without saying that many of us we will undoubtedly cross paths in the following months ๐ค๐ฝ
Thank you all and safe travels!

After a hard fought game with back & forth action, the Kraken fall short 2-1 tonight bringing our series and 2024/25 season to an end.
Landon Carson scored our lone goal tonight, with assists from Kananga Mangala and Luke Bennett.
We would like to thank all of the Kraken fans who came out during this memorable season, to support us and those who tuned in and cheered on from a distance ๐
We are all so grateful for our Kraken volunteers who made this season possible! Your unwavering support is felt immensely ๐๐ฝ

Congratulations to Lake Cowichan Kraken Defenceman, Luke Bennett, on being awarded the 2024/25 VIJHL Mac MacWilliams Memorial Trophy - Unsung Hero ๐
Bennett, who also scored a goal in his first BCHL game this season with the @surreyeagles, has been a stalwart on the Kraken blue line this season. He doesnโt play defence in his zone, he patrols it. A hard hitting, take-no-prisoners defenceman with a penchant for offence!
The Kraken organization is very appreciative of the leagueโs recognition, via this award, of Lukeโs abilities and contributions.
