hockey camp at Gor don Arena from August for over 100 children who want to improve their skills Dave Krause one of the organizers of the camp said player registered last year and so far 60 have already ap plied He said the phone calls have been coming in more ly recently and expects to have a full crowd again this year We like to cut it off at 120 We could take more in but it be fair to the kids since they t be getting the coaching they deserve Consider ing ice costs and some other ex wed need almost double our numbers to make it cost The registrants will be divided into three age groups six to eight nine and and 11 and 12 Krause said some children who have just recently turned 13 may be taken in as well We had a group for and yearolds last year but frankly some of them are tough to teach things to they think they know everything already also had a lot of people interested in even younger children joining so we opened it up to six year olds this year and adjusted the age groups Each age group is on the ice separately with that group itself divided into advanced and basic skaters The regular level mainly involves the elements of skating such as stopping starting cor and skating backwards Krause said that system was tried last year and worked well keeping the newcomers from be ing embarrassed in front of those with more experience When some can skate as well as the others it wasn fair for the more advanced ones to be held back Those kids will work more on puck control bodychecking passing and other parts of the game Krause said Vetro a former Canadian Football League player wili be returning to run the fitness program con on proper stretching techniques and workout pro He said Vetro won t be the only local sports personality he ping out either We v got a lot of good people helping us along with four guys who have all played junior hockey in Georgetown Rod who was drafted by the Washington Capitals Steve Mar cohni who played for the Kit chener Rangers Curtis Green a goaltender who played with the Guelph Platers and Davin Ciaga who has taught at various camps for four years Krause said that in addition to having a fine group of coaches the camp is
