It is with a heavy heart that South Simcoe Minor Hockey offers our deepest condolences, thoughts, and prayers to the family, friends, and teammates of Nolan Ion, a U16A athlete with the Upper York Admirals, who tragically passed away on Tuesday evening.
Hockey often creates rivalries and fierce competition between athletes and organizations; however, moments like this remind us that we are all part of one big hockey family. The loss of one is a loss for all.
On behalf of South Simcoe Minor Hockey, we extend our support and sympathy to the Upper York Admirals organization during this difficult time. Our hearts are with you.
A Gofundme account has been set up in Nolan's name. If you would like to donate, please visit the Gofundme page at Gofundme Nolan Ion
