The Goderich Pirates are a senior hockey team based out of the Town of Goderich, Ontario, Canada. They play in the Western Ontario Athletic Association Senior Hockey League.

Championships

Goderich has won 1 WOAA Championship, back in the 1953-54 season. The current team has never won a championship.

2006-07 Pirates Season

Goderich, coming off an 8-17-0 season in 2005-06, improved a little bit, going 9-13-2, good for 7th in the WOAA South Division.

The Pirates were swept by the Ripley Wolves in the Sr. "A" quarter-finals, although the scores of the game were close, including a controversial goal scored by Ripley in overtime in the 3rd game of the series. After the goal, Pirates general manager Trevor Bazinet stormed onto the ice, had an argument with the referee, and ended up hitting him. South Bruce OPP were called to the game but the hockey official declined to press charges.

2007-08 Pirates Season

Goderich would once again improve from their previous season, as they finished the year with a record of 11-15-0, earning 22 points. It was the Pirates highest win total and point total since the 1998-99 season.

The team would face the Thedford Dirty Dogs, in a best of 3 qualifying round, with the winner advancing to the WOAA "A" playoffs. The Dirty Dogs, who went pointless during the season, stunned the Pirates in the series opener in Goderich with a 4-2 win. The Pirates fought back in the 2nd game in Thedford with a 4-1 victory, setting up a 3rd and deciding game back in Goderich. The Pirates would close out the series with a 7-1 rout, advancing to the "A" playoffs. They will face off against the Durham Thundercats in a best of 7 quarter-final series.
