Bosev flying as first time captain

After serving an assistant last year, Adrian Bosev knew there was a chance he could wear the 'C' on his shirt when the Leamington Flyers opened their second season in the Ontario Junior Hockey League. "I would have been happy if anybody got it," The Windsor native said. "But it's an honor that I got it and I hope I can lead this team and make an impact on them for their future."



This is the first time in Bosev's hockey career he's been the captain of his team. "It's a bit uncharted, but I think the biggest thing for me is just use my past captains to really use as a mentor and even make sure I'm doing the right thing with management and coaches."


Head coach Dale Mitchell says Bosev, who won a Sutherland Cup championship with the Flyers in 2023, has been a team first player since joining the organization. "He has been through lots of ups and downs during his time here and he has always put the team first." Mitchell said. "I am happy for the early success he has had offensively. He deserves everything he gets."


Bosev has had a strong start and is leading the way along with former Windsor Spitfires forward Colton Smith, who each have four goals and four assists after four games. The Flyers are tied with Trenton for the top spot in the league early in the season. "It's a little early to tell fully but we're gelling really, really well," The 19-year old told Powerplay Sports. "We've got a lot of good guys. No one's really been overconfident. I think it's really good."



The Flyers are 4-0 and lead the West Conference. They host (2-2) Niagara Thursday before heading to Collingwood to face the defending national champions Friday.

This is why...

Powerplay Sports was born while on a trip to Italy in the summer of 2018. Walking through a charming pedestrian underpass reminded me of being in the tunnel at the University of Michigan in the early part of my career. That feeling led to thoughts of Windsor Lancers football camp opening in three weeks and all of the fall sports that weren't going to be covered because of cuts to local sports coverage by legacy media. 

​

With the support of a loving wife and family, I decided to create Powerplay Sports as a passion project.  

​​​​

I've come across some great people who have helped capture the essence of our community throughout the years like Tony Techko, Tony Doucette, Scott Scantlebury, Dom Papa, Steve Bell, Will Hill, Jim Parker and Mary Caton to name a few. 

​

Please spread the word and follow along here or on social media so we can continue having the priviledge of highlighting our athletes, our community.
