The league is unique in that it is based on a non- competitive format, ideal- ly suited to couples and in- dividuals who just want to enjoy themselves. Ball League (No Teams League) format involves the scheduling of players into different team config- urations from week to week. This allows people to get to know everyone in the league, and reduces the competitive nature of the games. Scores are not recorded, there are no standings, and the biggest are encouraged to enter as "couples." These couples are simply people who would like to play together each game, and will be scheduled accordingly. To register or for more infor- mation, call Ron Martyn at 986-5952. Players al- ready registered will be called during the week prior to May 20 about Action set for Scugog Arena this summer Rollerblade hockey league in the works By Kelly Lown Port Perry Star Rollerblading is the lat- est craze among youths and Scugog Township will be offering an organized hockey league for the first time this summer.
