Legions Neil Hancock and Steve Gilbert played well and Dan- ny Brown and Johnny Hall showed good kicking and passing skills on the forward line. Despite some close calls they were unable to put the ball in the net. Calvin Hammett was busy in the net and made some ter- rific saves. Gallagher's Gladiators - 2 Provincial Signs - 1 This was a great game for the spectators with both teams display- ing how much they have refined their skills. Brett Lawson and Ryan Williams were brave enough to try 'a couple of headers and Kim Rollo and Justin Wooten displayed some fancy footwork. This game could have gone either way with Provin- cial Signs forwards Alan Calder and Matt Phoenix really pushing the ball up the field and Gallagher's for- Jay Tredway and Christina lark doing the same. Jeremy Nor- ton found the mark with 2 goals and Ryan Duff notched 1. Goalie, Mark Brown, for Gallagher's played very well. Soccer Tip - The Throw In The ball must be held with both hands and brought back behind the head. Part of both feet must remain on the ground and behind the line. One foot should be in front of the - other for balance and power. Arms should swing over the head with the fingers guiding the ball in the right direction. 5 Year Annual Interest 10%* 2 change without notice hh family Ts ArPLY TO DON FORDER INSURANCE BROKERS LTD. 30 WATER ST., PORT PERRY - 985-8471 62%: Look at these Savings!!
