hockey Tot Georgetown Gemlnia However he has nol ruled out the possibility of returning to the Cent Ontario Junior B Hockey League team Frank has not been with the team the past few weeks and he said the reason for his sbsert- deals in part with the possible threat of further injury to his shoulder Frank has missed all but 11 games this year with the injury and even bad surgery last year to cor rect the problem which Is the continual dlslocat Ing of the shoulder from the joint A worker with Quick AsAir Courier Frank is Involved In a lot lifting The stress of his job does not hurt his shoulder but any lost time due to an Injury suffered playing hockey could be detrimental Actually Frank said his shoulder problems have been a recurring thing Two years ago be first separated his shou Ider and had the surgery to correct it The first game of the season saw Frank Injure the shoulder again and he has seen limited action since But as Important as the threat of Injury Is to Frank the continual los ing by the Gemlnia just began to creep up on I can take the losing Cross country but I couldnt take get ting beat he said Frank who was In his final year of Junior B and was capt of the Gemlnls was Interested in being trad ed he approach ed three teams about that possibility but with limited success I went to StreetsvUle but because they are affiliated with the Metro politan Hockey League they can take Imports If I moved there Id first have to live there one full year before being eligib le to play with the The same went for Mbnlco and Frank wanted to be Blades did not have any traded and said the extra cards hockey club did nothing With the departure of to stop Frank from look Frank from playing with elsewhere He also said he thought the Kennedy has been threat of further injury pointed captain of the was not the only reason club for Franks decision not Geminia coach Jules lo play hockey Kevin has played said be knew hurt for me before and I know he wouldn let something like that keep him out Personally Id like to see him play because he is a good team man and he Is the of person any team would want to have said when a player Is in his final Dismal second quarter gives QE Park team edge on Rebels year would like to go out with a team that has experienced Its share of winning He added be cant blame Frank for feeling down about the type of season the Geml nls have had up to now Currently Georgetown Is in eighth spot with a record of nine wins losses and five ties While knew of Franks wanting to be traded the news came as a surprise to general manager Bob Webster t looking to trade him be said He still on the team While Frank Is not playing now be said be could be in a Gemini uniform before the seas on comes to an end It hard to say I do miss the game Webster said too he would be willing to dis cuss that possibility with Frank I d be willing to talk with him Kevin could certainly help this club Now learn to turn Now that you have mastered the snow- plow technique the next step Is to learn how to turn 1 find that the and unwind method works best in teaching turning techniques Lets assume that you want to make a right As you near the spot where you want to turn go into the snowptow position At the precise time that you want to turn route your upper body and arms to the left Keep your bead Your right arm Is now ahead and in front of your body This Is the wlndup process Now transfer your weight to the left ski and rotate your body to the right side Your left band Is now ahead and in front of your body You have completed the unwind stage and your turn is completed As you can tee turning is really just a matter of weight transfer and follow through To complete a left turn wlndup to the transfer your weight to the right ski and unwind to the left Again the best place to practise Is on a gentle slope where the snow is reasonably well packed As you gain connoence you may want to try the Stem Christie turn The same turning principles still apply The only difference being that Instead of assuming a fun position you assume a half snowplow position In other words one ski continues almost straight ahead The other ski Is angled as In the full The weight transfer and unwind hen made and the turn is completed The movements for the Stem Christie are done more quickly than In the snowplow turn Lets run through a right hand Stem Christie turn As you are heeding downhill and want to turn right your left sU remains almost a straight line Your right ski Is moved Into the half or semlsnowplow position place your weight momentarily on the right forcing the inside edge Into the snow This move is called check or jam At the same time you to the left Then quickly unwind and transfer your weight Hold your position and follow through to the completion of the turn The final step in turning once you have mastered The Christie Is the parallel turn It really Is a sophisticated version of the Stem Christie and is accomplished without the use of a check or jam The parallel turn la based purely on weight transfer and timing The key to the parallel turn Is the lilting of the weight off the skis and direct transfer of weight without utilising the windup and unwind method The parallel turn Is an exquisite one requiring perfect timing The lift Is achieved by the straightening up of the legs from the normal downhill position At the precise time when the legs axe straight the weight transfer take place enabling you to complete the turn The parallel turn on cross country skis requires a great deal of practice By DAN RALPH Herald Sports Editor Park get a little bit revenge Friday In their Junior boys basketball game with own District High School Georgetown defeated Park awhile back in

tender was Just what the doctor ordered for Gemlnls Chris Sparrow For most of this season Gemlnls had been using their affiliate teams goalies to give Sparrow a rest now and then butbewassUlHogglngalotof minutes between the pipes Thus all the bumps and bruises a goaltender accumulates over the course of a season were not being given time to heal Two weeks ago the Gemlnls signed former Walteroo Siskins Scott McDougal and the newcomer promptly started in Georgetowns next three games That gave Sparrow his much needed rest I glad we got him because I was looking to get a little rest Sparrow said Having another goalie in camp will also bring out the best Sparrow can offer All I can do is improve because of It That is not to suggest Sparrow will not get his share of work In the goal He played in Georgetowns- win In Vaughn Monday night and was In goal Friday for the Gemlnls game against Milton We get along pretty well Sparrow said of his relationship with McDougal
