Tough Man Challenge makes a stop at Cominco Gym in Trail tonight Ed Mills SPORTS EDITOR Twenty fighters, including one from Castlegar, have put their hats in the ring for the tough man tussle in Trail tonight. The B.C. Tough Man Chal- lenge, which has woven its way through the province over the last month and a half, comes to the Cominco Gym in Trail tonight. The Challenge pits ama- teur fighters in three weight classes for $1,000 in prize money and a chance at $10,000 But people looking for a bevy of local fighters will be disappointed as only three of the 20 fighters registered as of Thursday are from the West Keith Voykin is the sole Castlegar fighter on the card, fighting in the middleweight vision. Trail’s Steve i will al- so fight in the middleweight category while Gary Vecchio will duke it out along with sev- en others in the lightweight di- vision. The heavyweight division might well prove to be the most interesting on the card. While the card is small with with just four fighters, it in- cludes former Canadian ama- teur champion Dan Brinley of Cranbrook. Several fighters will travel from Vancouver, Kelowna and as far away as Williams Lake to get in their shots. Some of the out of town group will be fighters who have participated in the challenge in other cities, said organizer Don Arnott. The challenge makes its last stop in Prince Rupert be- fore culminating in the $10,000 grand prize fights in the PNE Agridome Nov. 14. The last show in Victoria attracted what was the tour’s largest crowd with about 1200 people, said promoter Trevor en. The ultimate idea behind the challenge, said Wallden, is to revive professional boxing in B.C. “We're going to expose the best fighters in British Columbia and we're going to turn probably a dozen of them professional. “Then we may do a profes- sional fight card using some of champions in Vancouver in the new year.” Without promotions like the challenge, finding fighters is next to impossible, said Wallden. Setback won’t hurt new b-ball league @ Salmo entry drops out of fledgling Castlegar Men’s Basketball League but games will go on as scheduled, says organizer Brian Turlock News Staff There hasn't been so much as a tip off in the fledgling Castlegar Men’s Basketball League, but al- ready the league has suffered a setback. Citing lack of money and too much travelling, Salmo players decided to withdraw from the league Tuesday. The move leaves the league with five teams — Selkirk » Castlegar Realty, a yet to be Castlegar team, South Slo- can and Winlaw. League organizer Brian Tur- lock said Salmo’s decision was dis- appointing but by no means does the team’s departure critically damage the e. In fact he's hoping that there’s enough interested players left in the area to form another team. “We're prepared to go with five teams, but we're still looking for a sixth,” said heer prey “Soif, seubody is willing and able and thought they had missed out, they have one last chance.” Turlock said interested players should show up at Selkirk College this Tuesday prior to the league's opening game at 7 p.m. “If they are there we're going to find a place for them to play,” he said. Turlock, who began the league with Wayne McCarthy and Norm Zaitsoff of the Slocan Valley, said he doesn’t want to make too big a deal about Salmo’s decision. “We're trying to get this league off the ground and I don’t want players to think we're having dif- ficulties because really, we're not. “There's a lot of interest out there and the league will fly,” he said. The,league schedule, which had been completed, will have to be re- vised if another team doesn't come forward, said Turlock. What is known is that all the games will be played Tuesday nights at Selkirk College.
