Oldtimers’ hockey gets anewwrinkle ' The Terrace Timbermen old- - timers hockey team added a new “wrinkle to their tournament last February, and now most other teams in this rapidly-growing sport in North. America have been advised. of:the move, Timbermen; -segular Harold Cox wrote a.letter to the Cana- dian Oldtimer Hockey. Associa- tion Journal and it ‘was printed in the summer edition. It. ex- plained the team’s move with. an extra game that freshened up this style of hockey in our-area. Here's Cox’s letter: =. Mr. Peter Giroux, COHA National Office. Dear Peter: The Terrace Timbermen Old- .timers held our ninth ‘annual hockey tournament on Feb. 9 to 12, 1989 and again it turned out to be a real success. What really put the icing on the cake was a special game that we had during the tournament and that is why I'm mainly writing you this {et ter. After years. of travelling: to tournaments around the area, many of us were beginning to lose interest in the tournament format and were beginning ‘to think that the fellowship wasn’t being promoted as well as it could be. Our team would go to a tournament, play a game, have a beer or two, go back to the hotel, party within our group and wait for the next game, never really watching any other. games or spending time to build relationships with other players. Although ‘we still. maintained our love of hockey and always did our best to win, there was something missing. We decided to add something to our tournament to help rekin- die the flame. We added an extra game —- a Special Challenge Game -—~ just before the ban- quet. A full length game — three periods of 20 minutes stop time, each period played by dif- ferent teams. The teams were made up of players from two conferences, namely the Dry In- landers vs. the Wet Coasters . The first pefiod: was played by players 45 years and over, the - second by players between 40 a 44, and the (hid period was | -. played by players 35 10.39,» The combined score of: the three periods determined the winning conference. Each team in the tournament was respon- sible for selecting up to a max- imum of three players in each of the age categories. The signup sheets were sent to the teams prior to the tournament and col- lected by our:-Honorary Coaches at the tournament, 0 R Guess what ‘happened? . The interest and fellowship came to life again. The Challenge Game became’ one of- the main focal points of the tournament. ‘Long before .the tournament. started people began talking: about ‘it. Older ‘players were teasing. -young players about the -dif- ficulties they might have holding - up in their portion of the-game and aimlessly. discussed how much of a lead they would need. The neat thing was that just ‘about every player in the tourna- ment showed up to watch it. Moreover, the crowd really got into the game and actually clap- ped and cheered. . We finally were able to dress, play and talk hockey with players we had played against for years. It was like an Allstar Game. And what a lot of fun it was buying each other beer af- ter the game. Some of the older players on teams came to the tournament just to play in this game and promised to come back next year if we had another challenge game. As luck would have it, after 60 short minutes of stop time, the combined score was tied but the stories and lies didn’t stop. Friendships were formed that would never have been fostered before.
