Jeff Gabert 365-5579 May 10, 1995 9A Christina Lake clu JEFF GABERT Sun Sports The 1995 charity golf season Started with a bang last Sunday morning as a shotgun start let loose 110 golfers at the Selkirk College Foundation/Sunshine Radio Golf Tournament held at the Christina Lake Golf and Country Club. It was the third year for the tournament which uses the five- person scramble format. That for- mat was certainly well chosen since most players are still scram- bling to find their game this early in the season. The tournament ran in late June the past two years but tour- nament coordinator Preston Zeeben said it was necessary to move the event this year since the number of charity tournaments in the West Kootenay region has increased in the past few years, Even still, Zeeben was pleased with the turnout which was up slightly over last year. The 110 entrants this year were split into 22 teams and three flights. Those flights included a Pro-am flight for the second straight year. The winner of that flight was the team captained by Reg Clark- son that included Rocky Raynor, Dean Fair, Clare Palmer and Ian Harriman. They shot a 58 (14- under par) which was one stroke better than the second-place team of Wayne Gamborski, Lorne Bul- lock, Ron Tabbro, Ed Konkin and Mano Ferro. The overall low net winner in the two regular flights was Dave Dale's team of Nancy Dale, Ron Clifton, Linda Clifton and Cathy Manson who finished with a score of 56.4. Second place went to Fae Lee, Jerry Lee, Clint Stewart, Ev Stewan and John Lee wth a 57 score. Quinto Maida, Laurie Palibro- da, Noel Cutler, Tim Allen and Glen Héusworth placed“ third with a Score of 58: | The low gross winner in the first flight was the team captained by the tournament co-ordinator, Zeeben. His team of Gus Adams, Statis Dimopoulos, Derek Relkoff and Ralph Pollock shot a round of 64. The low gross winner in the second flight was Ed Wyatt's team of Jim Minor, Wayne DeWitt, W.T. Russell and Larry Cullen who shot a 68. “I thought everything went Sunshine Radio on-air personality Gary Derosz of Grand Forks was one of the 110 chipper golfers at the Christina Lake Golf Club on Sunday. fairly well,” said Zeeben. “The weather could have co-operated a little better but everybody enjoyed themselves and the course played fairly tough.” According to Fae Lee, Develop- ment Officer for the Selkirk College Foundation, the event raised over $6,500 which will be distributed to the Selkirk College Athletics Dep . the Golf-Manag Program and the Foundation, which gives ont bursaries and awards to deserving students. Next year's event is scheduled to take place at the Castlegar Golf and Country Club. Since the Col- lege is spread out around the West Kootenay, Zeeben believes it is only fair.that the event moves around. It will be Castlegar’s first opportunity to host the event which started three years ago at the Granite Point Golf and Coun- try Club in Nelson. | eer Young returns for eighth year THE CANADIAN RED CROSS SOCIETY SUN SPORTS PHOTO / Jeff Gabert Sauer says sayonara JEFF GABERT_ Sun Sports The Castlegar Rebels always put an advertisement in the local newspapers at this time of year looking for a new coach. Howev- er, this year is a little different because they really do need one. Garry Sauer handed in his let- ter of resignation last Thursday at the Rebels’ Annual General Meeting, ending a three-year stint with the KIJHL team. Sauer has certainly made his mark over that time frame, taking his team to two straight division hampi ips and i the KUHL record 24-game win- ning streak. He took a fourth- place team and turned it into a first-place club and he saw the fans come back as well. “We were really happy with the job Garry did,” said Rebel President Robin Tomlin. “He did an excellent job in building a championship team in a short period of time. I was sorry to see him go but I certainly wish him Sauer resigns really the case all three years,” said Sauer. “In three years I can honestly say there was probably only three games I went home thinking I would have done something different.” Sauer made the decision to leave after returning from a well- eared vacation at the conclusion of the season. It was not an easy decision for a man who truly loves the game of hockey but he ‘Im not leaving on a sour not, that’s for sure.’ — GARRY SAUER former Rebel Head Caoch the best-of luck: “It’s been a fun three years and a learning experience for everyone.” Sauer’s main reason. for leav- ing is his family. The head coach of the Rebels is an extremely time consuming job and Sauer needed to get back to the things that are most important in his life “I spent three good years there,” said Sauer. “It’s a tough job that takes a large time com- mitment and responsibility. I felt it was time I found some time for myself and my kids. “Tt just got to be too much.” Sauer thanked all the regular fans who supported the club every game. However, one of the biggest drawbacks for Sauer over ear tenure was being his three won't rule out the possibility of a Jordan-esque return to the game “I'll take a year off, maybe two and if I miss it that much I'll re- apply,” said Sauer, who works for the City of Castlegar. “I'm not going anywhere, I'll still be here.” The Rebels’ search for a new coach starts immediately and Tomlin has set a June 15 deadline for applications. He believes the Rebels will have a new head coach in place by the end of June, but says there-are no-clear candi- dates at this point As for Sauer, he'll still be around and plans to become a fan in the stands. Overall he believes his tenure has made a positive impact on the team and the club and he is happy to leave a solid club behind “I'm not leaving on a sour Jim Young was back in town last Monday to start the fundraising drive for the 8th Annual Jim Young Celebrity Golf Tournament being held at the Castle- gar course on June 13. Young is pleased to report that John McKeachie will be back as the MC and there should be many Canucks and former B.C. Lions on hand as well.
