Kings win inaugural Kevin Guinee Trophy

Kings have won Senior Division 1 to take out the Champions Title and been awarded the inaugural Kevin Guinee Trophy. The Kings won both games in the 2 game series over Newcastle Northstars.

IHNSW is always looking for ways to celebrate success and the history of our sport.

In light of this objective, a perpetual trophy has been created that will be presented to the winner of the highest grade within the Senior Competition (currently Senior Division 1). 

The trophy has been backdated to the year 2000 and each champion moving forward will have their name and year added to memorialise their accomplishment.

In honour of his contribution as a player, committee member and chairman; the Executive has approved the naming of this trophy after Kevin Guinee.

The trophy has been fully paid for through donations and IHNSW would like to thank those who have helped make this happen.
