Craig Sabine then went to work and got one back. And, before the Toro's were done, they had three consecutive consecutive goals.

But, it was not to be as the puck went right by the comer of the net with the Whitby goalie right out of position. by Brad Kelly Giselle Arsenault has the distinction distinction of being the only female in all of Canada to instruct karate in the traditional style. And members of her Wado Ryu Karate Club in Bowmanville are the benefactors of her unique status. As club members file into the banquet room of the Bowmanville Recreation Complex prior to the start of one of two weekly training sessions, Arsenault recalls with a vivid memory how she became hooked on karate. With her two sons already enrolled enrolled in a class, and pregnant with a third child, she became interested in the sport that she credits with changing changing her life. "I got my two boys involved because because they were mild-mannered and were getting .picked on all the time," she recalled. "I drought it would boost their morale." Indeed it did. Once Arsenault joined her two sons in the classes, she immediately noticed a change in her self-confidence as well. A natural progression through the varying degrees of belts transpired over the years. And today, with a second degree black belt to her credit, credit, she is in her first year as the head instructor for the local chapter. The club, which is embarking on its ninth year of existence, has noticed noticed a considerable increase in registration registration this year. Currently, there are 31 members who participate in training sessions every Tuesday and Thursday night. Arsenault herself is a good example example of a new trend. Karate is no longer considered a sport strictly for males. Among the many members gathered gathered on this particular evening is Jeanne Benetau, who makes the club an outing for her entire family. Both of her sons, as well as her husband, husband, are also members. "The-rest of the family was involved, involved, so I thought I would give it a go. I got hooked on it and I've been here ever since," said the Bowmanville resident. Like many others who venture into karate, Beneteau joined the club to help her learn some basic self- defence techniques. Although hoping hoping to never have to apply the techniques, techniques, it's reassuring to know that if the situation arises, she will be T-Mac Insulation (Miniers Earn Eighth Victory T-Mac Insulation Oldtimers improved improved its record to eight wins against one loss with a'pair of weekend victories. victories. Friday night, the team was paced by George Moore's two goals and three assists in a 7-2 victory over McIntosh Chrysler from Oshawa, other other goal scorers were, Ken Hammond - 2 goals, Gerry Snowden - 1 goal, Wayne Bradley - 1 goal and Huck Balson.

John Allen had three goals, Phil Solomon Solomon - 2 goals, Wayne Bradley, Brace Meadows, Mike Hewer and Tom Fennel Fennel rounded out the scoring. equipped to handle it. "I have no aspirations of becoming becoming a black belt. I just want to be able to leam to defend myself," she said. The style of Wado Ryu that is taught is a way of harmony, and is considered to be a complete martial art. Learning to defend against weapons such as knives, swords and sticks is just one of the many as-, peels that the martial art teaches. In that respect, Arsenault has seen the registration in the club double double the past year. Though some have joined out of a general interest, others others are hoping to inherit some self defence maneuvers. "I had some parents come up to me at the registration and tell me that they were signing up their daughters because they wanted them to leam to defend themselves," said Arsenault. In the past, Arsenault felt that a lot of females were a little apprehensive apprehensive about registering at the local club because they may have felt intimated. intimated. Now, with a female as the head instructor, she feels that the young girls and women in the class relate better to what is being taught. They are also comfortable with the co-ed classes that include participants participants as young as seven and those who are nearing their 50's.
