Spotlight on Rose City United

The Rose City United 14U red team is enjoying a successful season so far. They recently won the Gold Division championship at the President's Day Challenge in Detroit. "Our girls are an absolute pleasure to coach, as they work incredibly hard at practice and relentlessly compete in every match they play." Head coach Mark Drouillard told Powerplay Sports.

Nine of the twelve athletes are playing club volleyball for the first time and as a group have won three of the five tournaments they've entered. Rose City United won two golds in Ontario, a gold in Detroit, a silver in Indiana and finished 6th at a tournament in Leamington facing some of the top teams in the province.


"They play together, for each other, and are all incredibly close," Drouillard said. "We have an unbelievable parent group who are supportive and enthusiastic. Our 14U team has, in a very short period of time, experienced the most success a Rose City team has ever had. This team is special."



Rose City will play in two American tournaments after the March Break before the provincial championships in April.

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."
