Jr. Spitfires' pride following OHL draft

The OHL draft saw four players drafted from the Windsor Junior Spitfires U16 team. "We are extremely proud of our boys and how hard they worked this year." said head coach Matt Zucatto.


It was the fourth year four players from the program were drafted. "We built a reputation where players want to come play for us and our organization."


Winger Joshua Lepain was the first one taken in the 5th round by London. Saginaw picked defenceman Tyler McGuire in the 6th round and Griffin Grundner in the 10th round. Noah Mathieson went to the Barrie Colts in the 15th round.


"We pride ourselves on hard work, staying disciplined and playing the right way and when we do that we are very successful as a team and as individuals. It has helped these boys become not only better hockey players but young men that can be looked up to!"

aboutus

Powerplay Windsor was born during a trip to Italy in the summer of 2018. Walking through a charming pedestrian underpass sparked a memory—being in the tunnel at the University of Michigan early in my career. That moment brought to mind the upcoming Windsor Lancers football camp and the many fall sports that would go uncovered due to cuts in legacy media sports coverage.

Recognizing this gap, and with the support of my loving wife and family, I launched Powerplay Sports as a passion project.

Founded locally and operated locally, we blend traditional sports reporting with modern digital storytelling.

From high school athletics and post secondary programs to junior hockey and grassroots clubs, we shine the spotlight on the people who make our sports community vibrant.

Our video channel brings you highlights, interviews and behind the scenes access. We are courtside, rinkside and on the field capturing moments that matter. See you soon.

"We celebrate all of the athletes within Windsor-Essex and their achievements reflected on Powerplay Sports."

"Another great resource for local sports produced by a person that has been invested in local sports for decades."
