When a local mother recently posted the following on the Facebook page, Shelburne Area Q&A and Resource Hub: “To the three young men playing hockey at Greenwood park today: thank you! You made my 5 year old sons day by giving him a stick and letting him score a goal. He has told me a bunch of times that he is a hockey player now. His smile has been infectious!” News spread fast around our small town and it was found out that local resident Justin Paulitzki was the young man who handed this 5 year old a stick to play with. Justin is a first year hockey coach for the Shelburne Wolves Midget LL2 team that is having an absolutely stellar season. Also with Justin that day, playing in net, was Tyler Sheppard who is the trainer on the team as well as their good friend Lucas Miller. Currently Justin's team is in the playoff and sits in third place out of 16 teams, with a record of 13 wins, 7 losses and 6 ties. His team also recently won the Durham tournament they entered. Justin's response to inspiring this 5 year old was, “Its always good to see younger kids interested in such a great sport!” With over 100 likes on this Facebook status and 10 extremely positive comments from local residents, all we can say is it's nice to see young people like Justin, Tyler and Lucas in our community giving to the new generation of children without hesitation. This hockey season is quickly coming to an end, and with their last two playoff games being played away from home, you will not be able to see Justin and his team in action. They are hoping to move up one spot to second in order to move onto the Championship game, and we wish them the Best of Luck!
