The Yukon Broomball Association (YBA) held their annual playoffs this past weekend, with seven teams taking part.

The Roadhouse went through the tournament undefeated and took care of H. Coyne & Sons Ltd. 3-2 in the final game, which was slowed down somewhat by the watery conditions thanks to the sunshine and warm temperatures Saturday afternoon.
