Besides winning a large championship trophy, the team, who usually play in the Coldwater and District Men's league won $200 and had two of their number win individual awards. Terry Spiker won the scoring championship at the two-day tour- nament while Ross Cousineau took the most valuable player award in the final game Therriens defeated Oshawa in the final 5-4 on Cousineau's overtime goal at the three-minute mark. Also Therriens scoring for were Joe Showdown champion out Tommy VanNatter of Elmvale who recently won the district, regional and Ontario cham- pionship for 13-year-olds in the Minor Hockey Showdown competition, was disappointed on Monday when he was told he would not represent Ontario in the Canadian finals, Tom understood he would be travelling to Thornhill on_ either Saturday or Sunday of this week to participate in the Canadian Cham- pionship finals. However, when his coach Ross McConnell called officials organizing the com- petition, he was told Tom was not eligible. Only the four with top marks were called to compete and although Tom was in the top ten in Canada, he was not in the top four. This news was a shock to both the Van Natters and to Mr. McConnell. It was their understanding from the beginning of the programme that if anyone from this area did become the Ontario champion, they would automatically compete in the Canadian finals. Minor Hockey Showdown is organized by Sports Dimensions in Toronto along with the sponsorship of Coke-a- Cola. ; According to Mr. VanNatter, the top four chosen to compete in the finals this weekend are from Alberta, New Brunswick and Quebec. He was unable to remember the fourth province. Mr. VanNatter spoke with Mr. Orser, production manager of Coke-a-Cola in Penetanguishene on Monday, and Mr. Orser gave the impression he too was unaware of the conditions for the Canadian finals. According to Mr. Van- natter it was Mr. Orser's understanding that Tom would be in the com- petition. Mr. Orser was MISSED YOUR TIMES?

Both players had a hat trick in the game, while Gignac and Brissette came up with a pair each. Spiker and Peter Grigg came through in the final minutes _of Therriens game with Mississauga to give them a 7-5 win over a strong Mississauga club. Losing 5-2 going into the third period, Therriens staged a comeback with goals by Gignac and Cousineau, who also scored the first two goals for their side. What promised to be a close game with Lively, turned into a rout as the Midland entry romped to a 7-0 win. Spiker found the mark twice in the game with Ted Weatherall picking up a pair as well.

There will be six teams representing Midland this season, the same number that played last year, although one team was a joint effort with Ofo. The regular age groupings of 'Tyke, Novice, Peewee, Bantam and Juvenile will apply. The Midget team, -which last year travelled to and from Oro for many of their games with teammates from Oro, Will be made up entirely of Midland players if there are no problems finding a coach. Roberts said the league was. sti]l looking for a coach with experience who would take on the' team for the ..ap- proximately' four =menth season. % "We're quite sure there are enough players from last year's list, I think we'll have a team alright, but at the moment we're still looking for a coach." Roberts said anyone who had coached Midget age players (15-17, years) in the basics of positional play for a sport, could do the job. "A good hockey coach could adapt quickly,' he said. "'It's not exactly the same as hockey, but close enough that with a few adjustments, he could adapt.' _All other teams have had coaches appointed already. The peewees "ehjoyed a strong season last season and this year the league is planning a second team to allow those who aren't picked for the representative team to practice and ., Compete on an occasional basis. "We can dress 18 players," Roberts said, "So if we have 12 to 14 good players, that would form the nucleus of the team and we would fill the other positions from the second team on a rotating »-basis."" He said the boys on the second team would practice to learn the game and probably look forward to playing two games during the season. The fee structure for lacrosse players is geared to encourage new members and give them a break on equipment expenses in their first year.
