In this week’s Q&A, we catch up with our newest member of the 100 game club, Mitch Henning..

Congratulations on your play this year! How do you see the team’s performances so far?
We have a really exciting group this year. I think everyone is playing above expectations. We have had some really good wins to start the season hopefully we can keep it going.

Huge congratulations are also in order for you having played your 100th game recently!
Thanks! The years have gone by so fast and all I can say is thank you to everyone involved in giving me the opportunity. It's been a pleasure to be part of such a great team.

You’ve played in some big games for the CBR Brave - is there any favourite moments that come to mind?
My favourite moment playing for the Brave was when we won the Goodall Cup in 2018. Not only did everyone have chemistry on the ice but off the ice too.

You’ve been a valuable member of the Brave for a few years now. What are you working on now which will prepare you for a Leadership role in the future?
I've been trying my best to help the younger guys learn as much as they can. I want them to feel as comfortable as possible to ask questions but also help them have the confidence to play their own game.

The Brave have played over half-a-dozen games in the 2022 Goodall Cup season. Is there anyone on the Brave whose performance you have been particularly impressed with?
It's really hard to think of one person to say I'm impressed with! I'm most impressed to see a lot of the younger guys stepping up that have been struggling for confidence over the years. I think a big credit goes to the leadership group and Stu as they've done a great job bringing out the best in everyone.

Do you have any message you’d like to give to the Brave Fans?
Thanks for all of your support! No other team in the country has fans as loud as you guys. Best fans in the league!

On Saturday, the Sydney Bears will be making the trip down the Hume Highway to visit the Brave Cave (Phillip Swimming and Ice Skating Centre). Puck Drop will be 5:30pm.
