In the Alberta Inter-City Games his team got 3rd place and won the bronze medal. In their first game Sohrab gave a penalty shot and also scored an own goal which ended 6-2 for their opponents but he had an awesome second game even though they lost 3-2 and in their last game which was for 3rd place they won 5-2 and he had scored their first goal when he only played forward for 40 minutes and he played the rest of the game being the center defender. At the start 0f the 2006-07 season Sohrab scored 10 goals in 14 games at the Edmonton League. He also scored 3 goals in 4 games in the Calgary Family Day Tournament . By scoring 13 goals in the season until now he is one of the top players on his team and also one of the top 3 goal scorers on his team. Sohrab is planning to stay and play for Duggan in the next 4-5 seasons and if nothing comes in the way he definitely will.
