1981: Ottawa Trojans 22, Dukes of Gloucester 00 (Midget)

It was the Midget page's turn to get some attention this morning.

Records on this page of the early years of the Midget level in Ottawa tended to be little more than championship scores and partial recaps of those games. I've now been able to find most scores for the 1980 and 1981 seasons. 

As stated at the top of that page, the Midget level came into being with the birth of the Ottawa Trojans in 1980. They were joined by Dukes of Gloucester the following year. Their meeting in early September of that year, then, was the first between Midget teams in Ottawa. 

I already had a recap of the Trojans' championship victory later that year but it was of poor quality. I have found a cleaner version of it and replaced the original with it. 

Finally, I've come across a brief article listing the year's award winners. Unfortunately it, too, is a little rough looking. Sorry 'bout that. 

The Nepean Norsemen would join the league in 1982. I'll seek to locate some background on that team as well shortly.
