HomeMy WebLinkAboutHuron Expositor, 2006-05-31, Page 21Watt hopes for bigger, better camp in the future From Page 16 And, that brings us to this summer in Goderich, where Watt, along with Graham Nesbitt, of Seaforth, is running a camp geared towards players in the junior and AAA levels. "I just want to give kids that are really serious about hockey that edge to help them progress," he says. And, while Watt may not be able to hit the ice competitively for at least six months, he still will be able to get on the ice and help the kids. Watt says he plans to further the camp in the coming years and would like to bring a camp back to Seaforth. "I always enjoyed helping out with Dave's camp," he says, referring to the Dave McLlwain camp that stopped running in Seaforth four years ago. In the Suture, Watt says, ideally, he would like to organize a six to eight-week camp for all ages. As far as creating an annual camp, Watt says, "I live in Grand Rapids, but Seaforth is where I grew up and that is where I want to put the stakes in." As for next season, Watt says his plans are still up in the air. "Right now I'm trying to find out what would be the best thing to do," he says. "Maybe I'lJ come back and play in Sweden, or Finland, or maybe I'll take a year off. My main goal is just getting my knee back to where it was." community Calendar WED.

Susan Hundertmark photos St. Anne's win rugby in Huron -Perth 2006 is shaping to be another golden year for the St. Anne's senior boys rugby team. The 24 -member squad successfully defended last year's Huron -Perth title on Monday, claiming the top spot heading into the Western Ontario Secondary School Athletic Association (WOSSAA) championships today (May 31). "We are the defending champions and we want to defend our WOSSAA title," said coach Glen Ditner. Ranked number one — with a 4-0 season record — the Eagles "handily" beat fourth place South Huron in the Huron -Perth semi-finals. The local team then moved on to face F.E. Madill, of Wingham, who had defeated Stratford Northwestern to claim a spot in the finals. St. Anne's beat the Wingham squad 12-5. On Wednesday the team is travelling to Aylmer to compete at WOSSAA against the number two seed from the Thames Valley school board. F.E. Madill will play Thames Valley's first place school.
