For the past three weeks, the junior “A” squad’s schedule has been quite busy, with the combination of training camp and a half-dozen exhibition games. With those now out of the way, Natives head coach/GM Dustin Howden said they are all focused on the start of the real games.
The silver and black is back!

To help commemorate their 30th year in the Manitoba Junior Hockey League (MJHL), the Neepawa Natives are going back to a look that harkens back to their first year. The junior “A” club has confirmed that the team colours for the 2018-2019 season will be silver, black and white. The style of the sweater will also be altered to match the NHL’s Los Angeles Kings. From 1989-1999, the Natives wore the L.A. Kings style sweaters, before converting to the Chicago Blackhawk style, which has been used in some variation since.
