Infact, the minor ban- tains came out on top against another former A.AA team, Welland, in the semi-finals as well. "[It was top calibre competition," said Mr.. Windover. SMr. Windover said the coaching staff really stressed team fun- damentals this year and feit that one af the biggest factors behind the team's winning season was their teana diicipline. Its a very disciplined club," said the coach.

Atom BB's finish off a terrifie season The Braaklin-Whitby Atam "4BB" team finished its hockey season last week (Wed., April 2) on a very good note. Even though they lost the Eastern Ontario semi-final ta the Cobourg "A" club the Whitby team, sponsored by Challis Mr. Grocer, had a very successful season. Pulling up their socks before Christmas the entire teamn and coaching staff setsa goal ta take over the Lakeshore League in their division by New Year's Eve. Neyer looking back they repeatedly downed just about every team they took on running a 4.3 goals for, and a 2.1 goals against average. Finishing first in the league was the main goal of the year which was accomplished by hard work, deter- minatian and lots 'of dedicated practice. The next goal was ta knock Peterboro's "A" team out in the quarter-final best 2out of 3. A win in Peterboro in' the first game by a score of 4-3 put Whitby's quarter-final champion- ship one step dloser.

"The OPLGA was formed ta bring together and organize the vast majority of people who play golf," said Mr. Maude, managing director of the OPLGA. That number is estimated by Mr. Maude as more than 500,000 and when you consider there are only 400 public and semi- private golf courses in Ontario, there are bound ta be some prablems, he added. According to Mr. Maude the main problem facing public- course golfers is the lack of information about the courses available to them. The OPLGA wil at- tempt to bridge that gap with a 300 page direc- tory whlch w lilst club locations, furnlsh maps, club poicies, dres codes, tee off times and even which credit card wll be accepted. Mr. Maude said he has already recelved 2W rpoesto a question- nar esent ta ail public and senil-private courses asking about their operation and that 10 ta 15 responses are arriving every day - responses which are useci ta produce the directory. The directory will be availabie ta al mem- bers as *of May 15 and is included in the cost cf membership. Member- ship will cost $40 for aduits and $10 for juniors aged 18 and un- der. As well, the OPLGA has divided Ontario into 10 zones ranging from Windsor in the west ta Ottawa in the east with Whitby falling inba zane 5 known as Mero East. The zones will provide the means for the OPLGA ta, hold tour- naments and long distance driving con- tests throughout the province with the culmanation of the year being a pro-am to be held in Toronto sometime in the fali, said Mr. Maude. "Since when do amateur players get a chance ta play in a pro- am?'" Mr. Maude asked members of the media at s press conference held at Thunderbird Golf Course on Thur- sday ta announoe the formation of the OPLGA. The OPLGA will» also be concentrating on junior players in the province by providlng clinics 'ta be taught by Canadian golf professionals, accor- ding ta Mr. Maude. "'Unfortunately finan- cial background does not shlow golf advan- cernent for most kîds," said Mr. Maude. To help combat this problem, he has arranged far the golf pro from Kent State University, Herb Page, ta attend the pro-am tournameýnt in the fall, and recruit two juniors for the university through a gold scholar- ship. A golf pro since 1963, Mr. Maude was em- ployed as director of golf at E.P. Tayior's South Ocean Beach resort in the Bahamas. He said he has been surprised at the iack of promotion of golf cour- ses in the Ontarto area adding that the lilcaur- ses in the Bahamas "are promoted like crazy. " He estimated that 30 ta 40,00 rounds of -golf are played per year ant the average 18 hale golf cours adding that new courses are constantly being built ta meet the demand.
