Finals Score:..........Brampton Hitmen.........5..............Toronto Croatia...........0..............

Attendance was about 200 people on this warm damp evening. The game turned with these two ejections in the second half. Both players first Yellows were for dissent. Crljen felt that after being ejected he could just pull on a jacket and continue at the bench as their head coach. The game continued for six minutes until the fourth official Ganesh Shanmugan convinced referee Jules Bocarro to order him to the dressing room. The officials didn't work well together not getting co-ordinated on substitute requests. Fourth official, linesman Ian Adair, referee Jules Bocarro looked more like the Howard brothers than Hitmen's Sean Holmes "Curley Stooge" spinning pass while laying on his side. "Woo woowoo woowoo. Moe, Larry the cheese".

Roy Blanche earned the shutout for the Hitmen and had to be good in the first half.

Samir Karaga came in as a second half substitute at 66 minutes. He started the year on the Ottawa Wizards but has a job and contract in Mississauga now. He was the lone forward for the last half hour of the game and almost scored but looked all alone on his solo 1 on 4 runs. Toronto Croatia rushes ended up as Hitmen counter attacks.
