Junior Review

[JBrew42 37]

John Brewitt was born in New Market, Ontario, He grew up adoring hockey and the many teams and players within the sport. John Brewitt’s favorite player growing up would be Mats Sundin from the moment he joined the Maple Leafs John loved him. He grew up in a single-parent home with only his mother and sister they always encouraged John to pursue his goal of becoming a hockey player. Eventually, John would find a lifelong friend who played with him throughout his minor days in Newmarket and would end up joining him on the Mississauga hounds.

 

During John's childhood, he would play for a number of minor teams. Starting minor hockey at the age of 6 John would play for Hot Wheelz Auto where he would score 15 goals and 10 assists in 22 games his year. Every year John played in New Market he continued to excel but then as he becomes 14 and enters high school, he was offered to play for a team in the GTHL in Toronto which he accepted instantaneously. John had been training all summer for this opportunity and as his first season commenced, he realized the competition in this league was much greater than that of New Market. John’s first year in the GTHL was not what he had expected, John had not realized how steep the competition was going to be in this league he would end the season with 14 goals and 22 assists in 50 games. John however was not going to let this stop him and he trained the hardest he had ever trained in his life that summer he finished his second year in the GTHL with 32 goals and 16 assists in 50 games. After his second season in the GTHL John was eligible for the VHLM draft where the Mississauga Hounds drafted him. During the first season with the Mississauga hounds, the team had a disappointing year in the standings but John and his teammate did not let that stop them, they combined for 111 points, John had 50 of the 111 points. During his second season with the Mississauga, Hounds John has come to like the city a lot more even the traffic that’s going on throughout the night is not too bad anymore. Hopefully, as this season progresses John can hone his scoring ability and help lead Mississauga to a VHLM Cup.
