oI in ibm Sei Na a RE i 24- PORT PERRY STAR - Wednesday, May 20, 1998 "Scugog's Community Newspaper of Choice" Racing season well underway From Page 23 from any number of determined challengers. Warbutton, perennial rival Bob Kish and Nestleton's Dave Lee havetlaimed two wins each but consistency has Warbutton sitting pre- cariously atop the stand- ings. Richmond Hill's Steve Knab is running in a beau- tifully turned out race truck in this division and has been very fast in the early going with top fives every time out. It won't be long until Mosport has its first truck in victory lane. Prediction: Warbutton only wins on odd numbered years, Kish is hungry, Lee 1s the local favorite...the final race weekend will tell the story. The Late Models have - made just one appearance at Mosport to date and pre- dictably, it was defending champion Junior Hanley leaving the track with the points lead. West Lee Talons was runner-up to Hanley last season and will probably be the title holder's strongest chal- lenger. Pee Wee Evans from the Steel City is very quick and could be a decid- ing factor, as could Port Perry's Grant Edwards. Prediction: If nothing breaks, even odds on Hanley to Three-peat. The Modified class title chase will be another year long toss-up. : Former series champion Graham Brown has col- lected one heat and one feature win so far, a feat that has been matched by Acton's Darren Wrigglesworth. Dwight Brown, brother of Graham, has had to settle for a pair of heat victories while, very quietly, last year's runner- up, Larry Jackson has earned consistent top three finishes. If the Brown boys and Wrigglesworth focus too hard on each other, watch for Jackson to slip up the middle, divide and conquer. Prediction: Brown or Brown. One quick note ... When the OSCAAR Late Models visit Mosport this year; there will be a familiar face in the driving ranks. Dave Taylor, for- merly from Caesarea now residing in Oakwood, has returned to driving duties after taking several years off. Taylor, a former Mosport Late Model cham- pion will team with anoth- er Mosport alumnus, Mike Bricknell and plans to run the full OSCAAR schedule. Welcome back, Davey... Junior Merchants will face many tough teams this year From Page 23 Juniors, Oshawa Heat, Stouffville and Port Perry. This week's write-up is provided by the following team sponsors: Williamson's Motors, David's Hairstyling and R.B. Moase C.A. The next home game for the Merchants will be on Thursday night, May 21 at 8:30 p.m. on the south waterfront diamonds when Oshawa Heat will be the opposition. PORT PERRY STAR CROSSWORD CHRIS HALL / PORT PERRY STAR EASY RIDER: A dressage clinic and competition was held last Sunday (May 17) just south of Greenbank at Belleview Farms, which is owned by Jane and Glenn Ward. Here, Jackie Norman and horse Legacy, one of the eight entries, takes a few practice rounds under the careful tutelage of certified judge Joanne Bouwhis. From Page 23 - children go through the system, he has followed them every step of the way. "All levels are so much fun to coach. I started out with Tykes and I liked them so much I wanted to stay at that level but then I moved on to the Atoms and liked them; every year I enjoyed coaching, what- 'ever age and level. Coaching is very reward- ing because you get to see the kids develop their skills." the sport, he admits, is the parents sometimes. "We have few problems in minor hockey, but, The tarnished part of Team's main focus was having fun sadly, some parents are those problems," he explained. "Parents are supposed to set an example for their kids but its hard for the kids to realize what is right when the parents in the stands are screaming and yelling at the officials and the other players. "Most parents are very supportive but there's always the father leaning over the glass swearing. Kids emulate their par- ents and that's not teach- ing them the right thing to do." Upset parents should calm down, adds Ms Sanders, pointing out that up with any crap." And, says Mr. Van Camp, the players were a joy to coach this year. "It was a great year for the team and for myself. The main goal this year was fun and I think we did just that. We had our little challenges but I think in all we learned a little and had lots of fun. "Teaching the kids hockey skills is about the fourth or fifth thing down other people in the stands should not be afraid to confront them and ask them to be quiet. One reason for Mr. Van Camp's nomination, Ms Sanders continues, is that he is well-respected throughout the league. "Bill is respected by parents and executive as well as the kids. If it wasn't for Bill there would have been no Midget team this year. When he heard there was no coach he stepped right in there. Some of the kids may have thought about acting up but, when they heard he was their coach they were excited but knew he wouldn't put the list. They learned about fair play, team play, sportsmanship... things they can carry with them through life. If they learned any hockey skills then that's good as well."
