Closkey says there are four
teams who could win there. The
top seeded team, Lambrick Park
from Vancouver Island; the Rock-
ettes; Westsyde from Kamloops;
and Duchess Park from north
central B.C..

“If those four teams make the
semi-finals it will be an excep-
tional tournament,” he said.
“Anybody could beat anybody
You never know, some people
could get hot.” a

Lambrick Park has been far
above every other team in the
Province for the last four years.
This year, Closkey says, Lam-
brick Park could lose their crown.

He said it’s hard to judge the
island team because they didn’t
Play any of the other competitors
during the season. Instead their
schedule, for the most part, has
them playing triple A schools.

But Lambrick Park is without a
dominant individual this year, and
won't be further ahead than any
other team.

That means second ranked
S.H. will have the best chance
they've had in a long time for a
Provincial title. A position which
has surprised Closkey, who is in
his 24th year as Rockettes coach.

“At the beginning of the year I
didn't think we were going to be
any good,” Closkey said. “We
didn’t set any team goals but they
played exceptionally well early in
the season. In January, I talked to
them and they said ‘We want to
go for it."”

Last summer Closkey was rec-
ognized by Basketball B.C. for
his long service to the sport. But
in almost two and a half decades,
Closkey has never won a provin-
cial title.

And if the team does win it all

- this year it will be exceptionally

sweet for the coach. Closkey has
two daughters, Laurel and
Wendy, on the team. Laurel

sure to win,” he said. “The play-
ers are making the goals up as we
go. We won the big games we
had to, and have overcome some
Closkey said the players know
what chances they're taking to
win.
“If they decide they want to go
for it they have to realize either
they will make it or they will fall
flat on their face.”

Next. The hard snow conditions that we have
been recently experiencing has been giving many of
us trouble. The most typical malady of spoiled Red
Mountain skiers—who are getting a small taste of
what eastern boilerplate is like—is loss of edge
control followed by overturning. In other words,

Commit your body to facing down the fall-line
while slightly shortening the radius of your turns.
By moving your body down the mountain instead
of across it, even during long radius turns, your skis
will be better able to maintain a clean carving
action. Ski down, down, down the mountain.

First. To better steer your downhill turning ski,
mimic the action of trying to pick up a marble with
your toes of that same ste¢ring foot. The result will
be that you have the proper weight distribution on
the front of your ski to help it initiate the tum. Once
you are thinking about your tocs, you should feel
improved control and quicker response from your

This should be
tried first without
all of the trappings
of skiing. Find
yourself a gentle
snowy slope in a
park or while you
are out walking in
the woods. Now,
try doing a shoul-
der roll or a com-
bat roll, which is
nothing more than
a front somersault
gone awry. Simply
tuck your head
and your arms
close to your chest, making a compact ball, and roll
into the snow on one side or the other, taking the
fall diagonally across the back. Remember to tuck
in your head and arms. The rest is up to gravity and
momentum.

Not only is this good wet fun, but practiced
enough times, it will become intinctive and quite

Living wisely
with creation

When Christians around the
world gather for World Day of
Prayer services on March 6,
1992, concer for the the envi-
ronment will be at the heart of
their prayérs. They will be invit-
ed to reflect on the challenge of
“Living Wisely with Creation”.

Prepared by women from
Austria, Germany and Switzer-
land, the service for 1992 is writ-
ten from the perspective of
industrialized countries which
have experienced tremendous
economic growth and advances
in technology, and are only now
beginning to look at the environ-
mental costs of unlimited
Progress.

The order of worship carefully
weaves together Scripture read-
ings, including an exuberant
psalm in praise of creation, some
of the writers’ experiences in the

reconsttyction of their covntries |

after World War II, and concerns
about the present ecological cri-
sis. The Tower of Babel becomes
a symbol of the yet unseen impli-
cations of our high technology.

World Day of Prayer is a glob-
al, ecumenical movement of
“informed prayer and prayerful
action”. On the first Friday in
March each year, people in over
170 countries participate in a
common service n their own
locality. In Canada, the World
Day of Prayer is sponsored by
the Women’s Inter-Church Coun-
cil of Canada, a national council
with representatives from eleven
denominations. The offerings
from the services are used to pro-
vide study and worship
Tesources, to cover costs of print-
ing and distributing the services,
and to support ecumenical pro-
jects in Canada and abroad.

The service in this area will be
held at 1:30 p.m. on Friday,
March 6 in St. Rita’s Catholic
Church, 513 -7th Ave., Castle-
gar, BC.
