Ed Mills SPORTS EDITOR A Castlegar hockey player has made it to the final round in the Under 17 B.C. Best Ever Pro- gram. Vince Antignani Jr. found out Wednesday that he is one of 46 players from across B.C. invited to an eight-day provincial camp this July in Osoyoos. . Ten players from that camp will the Pacific Region team that will join 10 more from Alberta to form. play in an international tourn- ament this December in Van- couver. “Tm very excited,” said Antignani. “I wasn’t sure I’d make it this far.” Antignani, 16, was the only one of eight Castlegar players that started the camp to make it to the final stage. All the local players were members of the Castlegar Bantams Reps, who finished third at the provincial championships last season. Antignani, a hulking six-foot, 160-pound centreman was the Reps captain. Reps goaltender John Ray and defenceman Rick Fauth were with Antignani at the second stage of the program — the Kootenay Cup in Osoyoos in April. Antignani said the competition will be stiff, but there are a lot of factors that come into play at an evaluation camp. “There’s quite a bit of good talent out there, but they pick who's hot at the time. So if you fluke out you can make it,” he said. In its 12th year, the B.C. Amateur Hockey Association’s Best Ever Program was created to identify and train athletes to perform at a provincial, national and international level.

If you have creaks in you’re armor, that will show too.” The two-round, 36-hole tourney, which runs con- currently with the junior Zone qualifier, begins Saturday at Birchbank and concludes Sunday in Creston. The top six out of a field of 80 golfers from the East and West Kootenays advance to the - B.C. Amateur Championship in Chilliwack July 21-24.
