moat competitive year In its At least nine teams will be returning from the 1981 season with room for poos ible expansion With spring training Ignlt throughout he league it appears that the run for the title will be between the five most powerful contenders from last season namely Smoke Shop the new look Dairy Queen last year winner and the explosive Greek In the bottom hair of the schedule there are four competitive teams alt attempting to crack the top five namely Royal Glen Williams Mountain view and Nerval were in their first season of expan sion but Improved dramsU throughout the year Still being young it Is doubt Ihey will move from the basement of the league but should end up with a couple Glen Williams always a spoiler should have a better season in although their is suspect With a strong defence this team should not be taken lightly but It Is doubtful they will crack the top five Plaza whose record wasn t a reflec of their play lost season will be strong In How ever if their attendance I Improve It Is doubt ful they will be a actor Probably the strongest of the bottom four squads this season will be Royal They are a young strong team who came up with the big wins in at and were narrowly defeated In playoff If they remain healthy over the season they should oust one of the lop five DEFENDING In the top five it la out to defend the title With the strong showing s displayed In the si playoffs ore a team to be reckoned with Although Ihey are not a team with shear talent desire is the greatest factor on side They repeal but will be a strong contender One of he favorites for the title will be the always powerful Smoke Shop Having won the league numerous limes in the past their experience will be a factor to their advantage Although age has reduced the speed on the learn they have good hands and a strong defence Expert to see the Smokers in Ihe top two The weakest the top five will be the Wimps With very little It is unlikely they will be able to compete with the more offensive oriented Defence is strong but It difficult to win when you don score Expect Wimps to end up fifth Dairy Queen had a poor showing last season alter winning in I960 The queens showed more energy competing against than with other teams last If this squad can improve spirit with their talent expect see a finish in the top three The final and talented of any other team in the league would appear to be Ihe Greeks Tavern With the most explosive offence In the league led by the armed Kick Baldwin and sure handed John they t score less than thirty points game Using a doubleback form a this season speedsters Mark Russell and James Allen will add a new twist to the regular one back forma commonly used Return this season for the Greeks is the dynamic Jim Baldwin bo
