READY AND WAITING

The start of school means the start of school sports, and Jason Ozeroff and Dan Kooznetsoff
were quite willing to get things going for volleyball in the Stanley Humphries gym Tuesday.

WB Sailors take to the
waters of Kootenay Lake
for annual competition

NEWS STAFF

Although wind may play
havoc with some sports, you
wouldn't have heard any com-
plaints from Kootenay Lake
over the weekend.

The annual Gray Creek
Regatta took place Saturday
through Labor Day, and
chairman Kim Deane was
quite happy with Mother Na-
ture’s assistance.

“From that point of view, it
was one of the best we ever
had,” he said.

Deane said 26 boats were
entered for this year’s race,
down a bit from the yearly av-
erage, adding some Osoyoos

sailors who make the.annual
trip to the lake’s east shore
had prior commitments in the
States.

“If they had been here, it
would have been normal,” he
said. “We normally get about
30 to 40 boats.”

Deane said boats entered
in the regatta are divided in-
to two classifications, cruisers
and dinghies.

Among the sailors partici-
pating was local Randy Frost,
who captured fourth place in
the cruisers category.

Meanwhile, over in
dinghies, Robson’s Ross Scott
took first in the catamaran
class while Chris Chris-
tiansen finished second.

In the x-class, or miscella-
neous group of dinghies, Tom
Frost of Blueberry Creek fin-

Local skippers finish in the
money at Gray Creek Regatta

ished first.

Reached at home, Tom
Frost was quite stunned at
the news of his win while
brother Randy was equally
amused.

“We didn’t think we’d done
that well, so we headed out,”
he laughed. “We've done bet-
ter in the past, but we weren't
disappointed because we
hadn’t practiced this year.”

Over in Robson, Scott was
as equally laid back about his
victory.

“It was very simple, there
were only two catamarans
entered” he said. “My wife
was in the other.”

Deane said sailors came
from as far away as Calgary
and Whitehorse, with all en-

joying the weekend of sailing.

“It went really well.”

Fauth checks out
Czechoslovakia

i Local hockey player
comes home from tourney
behind the Iron Curtain

Jonathan Green
SPORTS REPORTER

Castlegar’s Rick Fauth
spent a lot of time around
Czechs last month, but he
wasn’t doing payroll or work-
ing at a bank.

Fauth was a member of the
under-16 B.C. Selects team
that travelled to Czechoslova-
kia last month for a eight-
team hockey tournament in
and around the nation’s capi-
tal, Prague.

He returned to town last
week, the unhappy member of
a team that finished eighth.

“Everything we tried to do,
we messed up on,” he said
Tuesday, adding that some
team members more interest-
ed in sight-seeing weren't
much help.

“There were a couple of
guys who were there just on a
tourist trip and not to play
hockey.”

The Selects’ were one of
three teams making the trip
from Canada, the other two
from Vancouver and Manito-
ba.

Fauth said each Canadian
team played games against
five Czech teams, with the re-
sults determining where they
placed in the finals.

The Selects opened the
torunament with a 5-2 loss to
Skoda Plzen, then followed
that with a 10-0 loss to Spar-
ta Praha, ateam that featured
eight 18-year-olds and four 19-
year-olds.

“That was kind of differ-
ent,” Fauth said.

The Selects put a win on the
board in game three, 6-1 over
Kladno Select, then lost a
hard-fought 3-2 decision to

Slavia Praha and a rather lop-
sided 14-3 to HC Praha.

“We took a pretty good shel-
lacking in that game,” Fauth
said.

With the round-robin over,
the Selects were drawn
against Kladno Select, a team
looking for and getting re-
venge with a 5-3 win over the
Canadians, who ended up
eighth.

In all, Fauth said the five
Czech teams played the tradi-
tional style of European hock-
ey, one
that
seems to
have each
player
and the
puck mov-
ing at the
same
time.

“They
play their
hockey,” he said. “It was com-
pletely free flow.

“If you gave them the puck,
it would end up behind you in
your net so fast.”

Fauth said one of the rea-
sons the Czechs stressed so
much puck movement is con-
tact.

“They don’t like to get hit,”
he said. “They would avoid a
check at all costs.”

Though the trip is some-
thing Fauth said he won't for-
get soon, he said that ‘he’s
quite happy to be back home,
where television and a variety
of good food aren’t hard to
come by.

“You start to appreciate
(those things) that much
more,” he said.

But that doesn’t mean
Fauth wouldn’t consider a re-
turn to Czechoslovakia.

“T’d like to go back in 25 or
30 years to see what they’ve
done.”
