The Almonte Pakenham Minor Hockey Association U21 team is set to play a high-stakes playoff game against the West Carleton Warriors on March 20, 2026, at the Almonte Arena in Mississippi Mills, Ontario. This match provides a chance for local residents to support the community’s youth players as they work to advance in their competitive bracket during the final stages of the season.

The game is scheduled to begin at 8:00 PM on Friday night. According to the Almonte Pakenham Minor Hockey Association, the U21-T2 Thunder squad is currently competing in the intense playoff rounds that mark the end of the minor hockey calendar.

The visiting West Carleton Warriors represent the neighbouring West Carleton area and will face off against the local team at the arena managed by the municipality of Mississippi Mills. U21 hockey represents the highest level for many local athletes before they transition into adult recreational or junior-level hockey leagues.

Community interest in the match is expected to be high as the Thunder continues its long-standing tradition of competitive play in the region. Fans are encouraged to head to the rink to cheer on the local players in this important post-season match-up.
