Hockey hopefulls
could face long
waiting list

THE TERRACE Minor Hockey League is
filling fast, and organizers are already
warried about possible lengthy waiting lists
in some age-groups.

Due to limited available ice time, the Ter-
race Minor Hockey Executive decided to
cap each division, thereby limiting the
number of players.

Association president Brian Downie says
that’s the only way for each group to
receive its fair share of ice time.

“What we did last year didn’t work,”
says Downie..‘*The kids didn’t get enough

ice lime because there were. too many .
- ies to put the project to referendum together

players.’* _ me

So this year, registration forms were sent
to all the players involved fast year, giving
them priority, And by the July 31 deadline,
many divisions were near capacity.

Now it’s first-come, first-serve.

“TE know that there are lots of kids out
there who, for some reason, haven't regis-
tered,’’ says Downie. “We're going to end
up with some disappointed people.”’

Downie says the association is trying to

achieve maximum team size, without com-
promising too much quality ice time for
each player — a difficult job with only one
ice rink.

“It’s pretty obvious how badly we need
more space,’’ says Downie. ‘'We’re really
cramped,””

In June, the Second Sheet of Ice Socicty
asked for bids from three private contactors
for a new facility. A committee consisting
of the city council, regional district and
Second Shect Socicty is reviewing the
proposals this week...

., Downie says he‘hopes:to get the mechan-

by the fall.

“Conceivably, if all goes to plan, we
could be building the second sheet by the
spring,’”’ Downie says. “‘But there are
several hurdles to jump before that hap-
pens.”

Terrace Minor Hockey is holding a
registration day on August L7 at the Terrace
arcna for players who are not yet registered,

the Doubles Mixed Masters division.
