Castlegar goes Little League By ED MILLS Staff Writer In a move designed to bolster the ing fortunes of minor probably deserves thanks in advance for all the work he’ll be putting into the event.

TRANSACTIONS It didn’t take long for for- mer Castlegar Rebels coach Ed Cooper to find employ- ment in the Kootenay Inter- national Junior hockey League. Cooper, who coached the Rebels for last two years but wasn’t rehired for next season, was picked up by the Rebels’ riv: i the KIJHL’s West Divisio: the Nelson Maple Leafs. before his junior team, the Spokane Chiefs, won the Memorial Cup last month. The Robson River Otters swim club is hosting its B class meet in Robson today. The meet began this morn- ing at 9 a.m and will contin- ue until about 6 p.m. The Trail Flag Football League holds its annual general meeting July 3 in the blue room at the Crown Point Hotel in Trail at p.m. The league’s i league baseball in Castlegar, the local executive voted unani- mously last week to drop the B.C. Minor Bageball Association and go to the Little League and Babe Ruth minor baseball orga- nizations. “It’s (minor baseball) been slowly dying, so we had to do something to get it back and decision, said Howe. “It makes a lot more sense in being Little League around here because basically everything is Little League around here,” said Howe “There’s nobody around here for the kids to play that belong to the BOMBA.” ‘What it means, said Howe, is more games for the kids — which translates into better skills — less travelling for par- ents, who had to go to the Okanagan for the nearest BCM- give the kids h to do,” , and hopefully in baseball in said Castlegar minor b president Gary Howe. Move was made at a spe- cial meeting of about 20 parents, local minor baseball officials and Little League representatives from Trail at the Community Complex. If Castlegar does go with Lit- tle League, it will join Trail, Beaver Valley and Grand Forks who already run Little League minor baseball. That was one of the main rea- sons the executive made the this city. Trail Little League coach Andy Bilesky, who was one of Trail since the early 1950s, and perennially takes teams to the national championship, said it will take a couple of years for Castlegar to get organized, but help is available from Little representatives in Trail. Howe said parents who moved to Castlegar from towns that /had Little League approached him about switch- ing. Pressure from them, com- bined with a slow start to this season — the league ended two weeks ago after only a 12-game schedule — brought the issue to a head and Howe set up the meeting. four Little League tive who spoke at the meeting, said it’s a good move for Castle- gar. “I think it’s a good idea. I wish more places around here would go Little League,” said Bilesky. “We could get a good league going on around here.” Bilesky, who has been in involved in Little League in Ironically, the decision to switch came at the same meet- ing where the outgoing presi- dent of minor baseball, Bob Mal- off, wagyhonored. Maer who had been in the organization for 10 years, said it doesn’t matter which baseball i i Cc 1 wants to parents and kids or it won't work. “If they have the parents who are willing to put in the time, if they get the kids who are willing to put in the time then yes, you're going to get good calibre ball out here. But you've got to have that backing you before you worry about what organiza- tion you're going to be in,” said Maloff. He said a lack of support from parents and kids has been Castlegar minor baseball’s biggest problem over the past few years. But if Howe’ aged to get people excited about baseball again, Maloff wishes i the best. “If you have enough parents it doesn’t matter if you're Little League, B.C. Minor League or Bambino League, you're going to have a good organization. I hope it works,” he said. Howe said the Castlegar ive has notified Little go with, it has to have the sup- port and commitment from the League head office in Toronto about its decision and is await- proce. dure it needs to follow to join . “There will be a couple of more meetings coming up here pretty soon, once we get straight what we need to do and what our goals are going to be for next year,” said Howe. “Hopefully we'll have the kids and parents out there excited about it and want to participate in it.” LA PITCHER for the coming season will be elected and a forum held to discuss current issues.

Casnews photo by Ed milis the mound in a 7-2 victory over Castlegar Men's Fastball Rebels to deal close with Jr. A Lakers By ED MILLS Staff Writer The junior B Castlegar Rebels and tier two junior A champion Vernon Lakers are considering an affiliation agreement, the presidents of the two teams said Thursday. The agreement would mean the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League’s Rebels would become a minor league team and feeder system of the Lakers, who play.in the B.C. Junior Hockey League, said Lakers president, general man- ager and owner Mel Lis. Lis said Castlegar has provid- ed the Lakers with a lot of quali- ty hockey players over the years, 80 affiliation would be a way of paying back the city and the Rebels. “There have been six or eight guys out of that little city, prob- ably more than any other city,” Lis said Thursday from Vernon. “They’ve helped us, maybe we can help them back.” The Lakers are in the mar- ket for a new farm team because the one they had last year, the Columbia Valley Rockies of the KIJHL’s East Division, will like- ly become the farm team of the new Cranbrook franchise in the junior A Peace Cariboo Junior Hocke; y " Rebels president Russ Rilcof said Lis approached him about the possibility of affiliating a week and half ago. The Rebels executive then met and immediately approved the idea. Rilcof said there’s no question affiliation with the Lakers would make the Rebels, who missed the playoffs in the KIJHL’s West Division for the third straight year last season, a better hockey club. “You know as well as I do that if-we're talking about six quality junior A players that are capable of playing for a top-qual- ity club such as the Vernon Lak- ers, and you have access to them, you just can’t help but bol- ster the quality and depth of your overall team,” said Rilcof. Rilcof ‘s son Kevan and Rebels products David Vecchio and Lorne Kanigan played for the Lakers, who won their sec- ond straight Centennial Cup championship in May. “It only adds to the incentive and motivation to individual players to be able to have access to a quality club like the Vernon Lakers,” said Rilcof. He said Lis told him he would be in Castlegar this weekend to look over the Rebels organiza- tion and discuss preliminary details of the plan. “I don’t want to elaborate any more until he comes down and says ‘yes, we want to work with you.’ But I think we can do busi- ness,” Rilcof said. Lis said he won't be making any commitment to the Rebels until the B.C Amateur Hockey Association approves Cran- brook’s entry into the PCJHL. “We don’t want. to do an: thing works out good then it’s a go ahead.” Lis said the Lakers are in the process of deciding if they would hold a rookie camp in Castlegar.
