The junior Vees were founded in 1961, taking the name of an existing senior hockey team.

Origins of the team name [edit]

Although it is common though by many that the name "Vees" has to do with Victory, the name actually represents the three types of peaches grown in the area: Vedette, Veteran, and Valiant.[1]

The Vees were Mowat Cup champions in 1968, 1973, 1980, 1981, 1982, 1985, as well as in 1986, when they were also Centennial Cup champions.
