Erickson’s second goal of the game gave his team the Koka- nee Division title in the 14th annual Pacific Cup tournament, which featured 100 teams from all over Western Canada. “It's a fun tournament but it’s still competitive and it’s nice when you win,” Erickson Said. “Scoring the winning goal was pleasing but it wasn’t an individual effort.

Fair play gets poetic boost The federal government's Canadian Commission For Fair Play has some tips on. how to support young hockey players without spoiling all the fun. The tips are simple to learn if you just remember the acronym Yekcoh, which is hockey spel- led backwards: Y is for yelling, which par- ents must not do with the exception of cheering. E is for emotions that embar- | tass players if their parents get } carried away with emotional outbursts at games. K is for the youngster who is trying his best and shouldn’t be expected to do any more than just that. C is for cheermg and in the way parents shows they have confidence in their son. © is for orders, which a parent shouldn’t ever shout. Remember to leave these for the coach to dish out. H is for home, where a parent should stay if their comments from the sidelines hinder their son’s performance at games. —golfer’s capiain TheReview Wednesday, January 23,1991 — C3 BEATING TWO PLAYERS to fire a shot on goal trom close range, a Sidney Old Buoys player rediscovers the form of yesteryear in oldtimers’ tournament action at the Pano- ama Leisure Centre on the weekend. Junior Eagles outshooi Saanich a 6-3 jump on the home team, he said. “We had plenty of shots on goal but Saanich kept coming down the ice and getting cheap goals on us,” he said. The absence of the Eagles’ number-one choice goaltender Cory Volk was sorely felt, espe- cially when Saanich scored on a couple of long-range shots. Despite dominating the last per- iod, the Eagles were only able to narrow the deficit by two goals, Mowat said. “We just didn’t get rewarded for outplaying them in the third per- iod. We should have had ten goals but it wasn’t our day,” he said. The Junior B Eagles hockey team came up short, losing a heartbreaking 6-5 decision to the Saanich Braves, Jan. 15. Head coach Mike Mowat said his team outshot the visitors by 58 to 25 but was defied time and time again by the heroics of the Saanich goaltender. ~ “We were all over them in the last period but their goaltender . played the game of his life,” he said. The first period saw a fairly even battle which was reflected by. the 2-2 scoreline. But Saanich took advantage of an uninspired performance by the Eagles in the second period to get Rusty Colour back in form midway through the first half, McDonald said. The bigger Gorge midfielders drove some hard shots into the home team’s goal area and Col- our’s defence ran into trouble trying to clear the ball. Goalie Brian Timms made sev- eral great saves on close plays but was beaten when a Gorge forward intercepted a clearing pass to score from a hard shot that gave Timms little chance. Just before the half-time whistle, Colour almost tied the game when | left winger-Mason Walker fired a shot over the crossbar from close Tange. A tireless effort in the second half by Colour was rewarded by a tying goal from Terrell on the ten-minute mark, he said. Fullbacks Jim Saunderson and Jon Goulet combined with forward Chris Gray to feed the ball to Terrell, who netted his first goal of the season with a well-struck shot. Several minutes later Unde- rwood scored a goal that was disallowed due to a controversial offside ruling against another Col- our player. The last ten minutes saw both teams create several good scoring chances, which included one Gorge effort that hit the back of the net but was disallowed on an ~ offside call. “We fought really hard and came back when we were down and we didn’t slow up until right at *& S&S Boneless Pork MT eee © Lunch Specials From °3® MON-SAT 11:00 AM-2:00 PM DAILY nce eae THE SAANICHTON TOWN RESTAURANT McDonald said. 2 PIZZA * CHINESE * WESTERN Colour next plays at 12:15 p.m. on Saturday at Blue Heron Park in 7784 East Saanich Road 652-1213 (across from Prairie Inn on Mt.

Snow and wet weather, com- bined with a long Christmas break, had forced the Peninsula team to sit on the sidelines for the past eight weeks, coach John McDonald said. “But we played stronger than | felt we would, considering the players’ conditioning was down,” he said. Colour wasted no time in getting back into the thick of it by creating all the early scoring chances, he said. Midfielders Shaun Kingerlee, Lee Dryden and Bryan Terrell took charge of the midfield arena to pave the way for the team’s offen- sive thrust, which was led by Bill Farrant and Darrell Underwood.
