That fact was driven closer to home this week with a visit from Ron Bogart, president of the newly organized Exeter junior Hawks. General manager Dan Brintnell and coach Dave Bogart have set the opening of fall training camp for Sunday, August 24 at 6 p.m. at the Stephen township arena at Huron Park. Coach Dave Bogart has started with a list of,75 names of players who are eligible and could be interested in playing with the 1986-87 edition of the Hawks. The response received has been remarkable and a large number of prospects are expected at the first workout. Despite the great number of replies, anyone else wishing to try out should call Dan Brintnell at 235-1953 or Dave Bogart at 235-0847. The territory from which the Hawks are able to draw players is very large. They are free to sign players from anywhere within the confines of the counties of Huron, Perth and Middlesex in- cluding the cities of London and Stratford, In addition, they would be allowed by Ontario Hockey Associa- tion rules to sign two players from outside these designated areas who would fall into the import category. The Hawks will also have a new on -ice look as far as uniforms are concerned. They will back to short pants and socks along with new sweaters along the line of the Pittsburgh Penguins with the Hawks name running diagonally acrosk the -front. The new regime for the Exeter and area junior Hawks come into the new season with a lot of enthusiasm and this is bound to rub off on the players. President Ron Bogart told us, "I think we will be a lot better than last year. We need three or four more solid defencemen and Sports Spotlight by Ross Haugh better goal tending. The forwards last year were not that bad". Dave Bogart comes to the local coaching job after a four year playing career at Laurier University in Waterloo and two years as assistant coach at the University of Ohio in Athens, Ohio. . Hockey schools continue While the subject of hockey, three hockey schools in this area are continuing for the month of August. They are the Huron school at the Stephen township arena, the Shamrock school at the Lucan arena and the Fundamentals in Action School at the Ilderton arena. The FIA school at Ilderton is operated by former NHL'er Whitey Stapleton. Shipka area resident Roger Ratz is involved in the operation of the school. One of the instructors last week was former NHL goalie Gerry Desjardine. Stapleton's clinical program has been adopted for this winter by the Exeter Minor Hockey Association. During the last week of August the Huron Hockey School will feature their professional program with about 65 pros and promis- ing youngsters expected to attend.
