The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, July 18.1990 11 \ Villi Nicole Devonish Ball Hockey Season Ends The Bowmanville Youth Ball Hockey League finished up their third year of operations operations with a tournament Sunday, July 8, at the Sports Complex. A total of ten games were played. In the Jr. Division; the, Wolves captured the 'B' Championship by defeating the Knights by a 5-0 score. The Spitfires won the 'A' Division Division by a 5-4 score over the Generals. They then went on to defeat the Wolves 2-0 in the Grand Championship. Special thanks to the Bowmanville Canadian Legion Legion Branch 178 who spon sored all four Jr. Division teams. In the Sr. Division, the Whalers defeated the Kings by a surprisingly high score of 13-2 to capture the 'A' title, title, while the Flames had to go into overtime to win the TS' Championship with a 3-2 score over the Penguins. The Grand Championship Championship Game was a classic way to end the tournament with the Flames winning 5-4 in double overtime.

The league is organized, by a two-man committee of Paul Robinson and Rick Brown. But without the volunteer volunteer help of approximately approximately 16-20 coaches, the games could not be played. So, special special thanks to all those involved involved and to the volunteers who helped with the barbecue barbecue on the final day. Something rather peculiar peculiar happened here in the sports department last week. Someone wrote a letter to the editor expressing some concerns they have over O.M.H.A. hockey in Orono. This event is an oddity because I don't receive the sacks full of mail that jolly old St. Nick receives each year. In the eight months I've been here at The Statesman, there have been only two ■ sports-related letters cross my desk. It doesn't happen often, often, which is too bad. If you havé something that you would like to get off your chest, by all means send it in. We'll do our best to get it into the paper, and try to find an answer out for you. Which is exactly what happened this week. The letter (which appears appears on the Editorial Page today) was submitted submitted by a family in Orono who expressed their disappointment disappointment in O.M.H.A. hockey in the Town. In a nutshell, the letter letter writer wants to know why her son, a goaltend- er, cannot come to Bowmanville Bowmanville and play all- star. That question isn't a new one. The topic has been bounced around since back in the early '80's when I was playing minor hockey. Like every controversial controversial topic, there are al ways two sides. The way I see it, the problem is two-fold. (1) If a kid, no matter the age, is playing in Newcastle or Orono, and finds the calibre of the hockey is too low for his/ her abilities, why shouldn't he or she be allowed allowed to play in Bowmanville Bowmanville where the level of hockey is generally higher? higher? (2) If the best players in Newcastle and Orono are allowed to play in Bowmanville, what will that do to the programs in those towns? If they don't have competitive all-star teams now, which is what the letter states, then what will the team be like if it loses its best players? Apparently, the decision decision to have kids playing hockey in their own centres centres is one set down by the O.M.H.A. Their ruling ruling is that if a community such as Orono, has an O.M.H.A. team, then the kids from that town must play there. If a player refuses refuses to play O.M.H.A. in his town, he can then play house league in another another centre. Which is what the letter writer's son is doing. For the past couple of seasons, some kids in Newcastle have been able to play O.M.H.A. in Bowmanville Bowmanville because there wasn't enough players registered to form a team there. In my opinion, I don't J think a talented hockey player should be held back from trying to improve improve on his/her abilities. The decision should be left up to the player and their parents on where they feel it would be best for them to play. From the information' I could gather, it's up t6 the people of Orono to change the O.M.H.A. ruling. ruling. The O.M.H.A. cannot force the Orono Minor Hockey Association to release release their best players to play in Bowmanville; But, if the people of Oro- no could change the minds of their own associ-: ation, the O.M.H.A.' would change their ruling if they were approached. There would have to be some re-structuring of the minor hockey associations associations here in the town if players were given the freedom to play hockey at a higher level. There's no question about that. ' ; But, in the long run,' the move would be for the benefit of the kids play-; ing the game. And the last time T checked, that was supposed supposed to be what playing minor sports was all' about. It's for the kids. .. . o ll f| -ii- - ' ' - ~?***i> r ji Wolves -- Junior Division 'B' Champions mèpiïffîÿ /gfk i gegp^' . - -r- ga-- > Ï ?|-A- "Av 1 Spitfires -- Junior Division 'A' Champions and Grand Champions Tift , < / f Pe*El' .//'!* mi ' Mi i r 1 1 v .... iCi v 1 iOwW ffHsPii :V Whalers » Senior Division 'A' Champions Flames Senior Division 'll' Champions and Grand Champions 00LS- SAVE OVER *3000°° Savings expire end of July Manufacturer's Special!
