Sylvania Northview High School

Sylvania Northview is a public school in the suburban community of Sylvania, Ohio, which is located west of Toledo. When broomball first began in the Toledo area, back in 1977, Sylvania Northview quickly established itself as the dominant school program, winning Championships in 1977, 1980, 1982, & 1983. In the years that they didn’t win Championships, they were always a leading contender. In the early 1980′s, every year, they always had several teams in the broomball league, and often two of their teams would dominant the league and then play against each other for the championship. The Northview program was, without a doubt, the premier program in the league. However, in 1981 when the Bowsher Blue team won the 1st ever Bowsher Championship, the Bowsher program began to challenge the Sylvania program for dominance of the league. It was in 1984, when two Bowsher teams, Bowsher Blue and Bowsher Red, dominated league play and made it into the Championship Game, that the Bowsher program began an 8 year string of consecutive Championship victories that would mark the end of the Sylvania Northview dominance. By 1989 Sylvania Northview teams had completely disappeared from the league, but  returned after a group of Sylvania Northview students renewed a long standing league tradition by entering a team in the G.T.B.L.
