On the heels of Friday night's 4-1 loss to the Lambeth Lancers at the Seaforth arena, the Cents cling to third place at the moment. with a record of eight wins and 13 losses, in the Morenz Division of the Ontario Hockey Association's Junior •"D"evelopment League. They are two points ahead of North Ivliddlesex, in the fourth and final playoff spot. in the Morenz standings, but the Stars have four games in hand. and three fewer losses. Those Stars made short work of Seaforth in Parkhill Saturday night, taking advantage of a pair of giveaways and connecting on two screened shots; to jump to a 4-0 lead after the opening 20 minutes. The Cents outplayed them the rest of the way, with the line of Steve Mclnally, Mark Van Dooren and Aaron Parsons netting three second - period goals, but North Middlesex never relinquished their early advantage. Jay Baker scored his sixth goal of the season for the Centenaires in the third. LANCERS DOMINATE "Lackluster" sums up the tCentenaires game Friday night says coach Jason Papple. "Lambeth played a disciplined game and won every one-on-one battle. "We have four or five guys going 100 per cent every night and the rest show up once in a while," he says. The Lancers led 1-0 after the first. then dominated the remainder of the game by adding two powerplay and one short-handed goals. Mclnally, a plus 16 so far this season in team plus- minus calculations, spoiled Lambeth's shutout bid when he scored the Centenaires' only goal on a breakaway in the third. Scott Van Dooren is leading Seaforth's junior squad in plus-minus at +19. Mclnally is currently the club's leading scorer, with 29 points in 18 games from 11 goals and 18. assists. Van Dooren (Scott) is next with 12 goals and 14 assists for 26 points in 18 games, followed by brother Mark Van Dooren with six goals and 12 assists for 18 points in 21 games. The Centenaires have also announced the return of forward Shawn Walsh of Stratford "to the fold." Manager Dave Parsons says Walsh wasn't going to play hockey this season. He was concentrating on a golf scholarship offer in the United States instead, but has now changed his mind. "Shawn's firepower has been greatly missed this season," Parson says. "He's a competitor and he likes Seaforth." Decades of experience at many levels Juniors hire Weber as associate coach The local junior Centenaires have hired well-known Seaforth-area hockey coach 13ill Weber as an associate to Jason Papple, who was promoted to interim head coach two weeks ago, alter firing Brian Nigro. Weber, a retired teacher who lives in Egmondville. is a systems and skills coach with decades of experience who stresses discipline. and has won at all levels of the gaine, from mite through junior and in high school hockey. A press release from the Seaforth Centenaires Junior "D"evelopment Hockey Club says the general manager and executive "were not happy with the current direction" of the team. so have hired Weber as an associate to Papple for the remainder of the season, "to assist with the entire on ice operations of the team." • "I personally have heard nothing but good things about Bill and his ability to mold winners out of his hockey knowledge," cents' manager dave Parsons says. "Something drastically needed to he done now as we turn the corner into the playoffs. "There is no reason why we shouldn't turn this around." New volunteer policy approved for schools By Tint Cumming A new policy on volunteers in Perth and Huron schools was approved at an October meeting of the Avon Maitland District .School Board. The policy encourages volunteer programs and says the Director of Education will give guidelines to principals when volunteer programs are implemented. Director of Education Lorne Rachlis told the meeting of the hoard that he had been concerned over liability issues concerning volunteers and therefore passed on the policy for comment. it received positive appraisal from those who reviewed it, he said. The school procedures manual for volunteer programs says volunteers can help in duties such as field trip helper. on fundraising campaigns and providing otic -on -one assistance to students. It also says the hoard's intent is to "promote a safe and secure school and working environment for students and staff." Under the procedure. school principals are responsible for the .recruitment, selection and screening of volunteers. • Each school will designate a volunteer coordinator • The hoard's liability insurance will cover a volunteer doing their duties for the board. "This insurance protects a volunteer who may he named in a lawsuit arising out of an injury, to a student." the report says. Volunteer applicants must be interviewed by the principal or school volunteer coordinator, the policy says. The amount of time spent screening and training a volunteer would he in proportion to the extent of the volunteer's responsihilitics and the degree of direct supervision of the voluntccr, according to the report. "Volunteers who are non - parent, but community members, may require a higher level of screening which would require that thc applicant provide a list of three references which will be checked by the principal," according to thc document. "If it is necessary for a voluntccr to have direct contact with students under low or no direct supervision by the principal or another staff member. - e.g., coaching an athletic team, overnight trips with students - the applicant must provide a recent Criminal Reference Check at their own expense." The policy procedure says volunteers must •be aware of health and safety issues, legal liability, emergency procedures such as fire drills and reporting abuse procedures. Principals must also give them a statement concerning confidentiality issues and a statement of disclosure of abuse by a Penny & Lorrie's Christmas Craft Show & Sale Friday, Nov. 27 1 pm - bpm Saturday,.
