108S - The Canadian Champion, Tuesday, November 21, 2006 Minor football comning to Milton Is this town big enough for two minor football programs? The answer to that question will begin taking shape Saturday, wben boîb the establisbed Halton Invictas and upstart Milton Marauders officially introduce themselves to the sporting community. Founded by Alan Collver, the Marauders will have their registration from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Milton Sports Centre. Meanwbile, Invictas presidentjack Crawford is set to hold an information session at Milton Leisure Centre, starting at 4:30 p.m., wbich will serve as a prelude to a February sign-up. Both organizations hope to start peewee (12 and 13-year- olds) and junior varsity (14 and 15-year-olds) next summer, with a nine to 1 1-year-old atom squad also planned for the Invictas - who've recently moved their base of operations from Burlington to Oakville. Each owniog the local rights to different minor football leagues, Colîver and Crawford bad originally met to discuss working together 10 bring minor football t0 town, but ihose negotiations broke down over differences of opinion. "Ive got $2-million to invest in Milton for new fields and the Invictas have graduates in both the CFL and NFL," saîd Crawford, whose teams would play in the Ontario Minor Football League. "if another group can compete with that, I wisb them .well." Stating that hes got strong contacts with both Bisbop Reding Secondary School and Milton Distnict High Sehool, Colîver said hes flot sure theres enough local interest yet t0 field rwo teams at ither level, even wth bis South Central Ontario Football League rigbts extending to Acton. 1I doubt the numbers are tbere yet. Its a regrettable situa- t ion, baving the two groups vying for players.
