Not only is the Minor Athletic Association trying to enter a Juvenile team into league Play, but a one-week hockey school is aiming at getting Zurich players into better shape before they face competition. The good news for parents sign- ing up their kids for hockey this year in Zurich is that the costs have not gone up from last year. It sell costs $120 to put a youngster into hockey, and for Tykes it even costs $10 less than last year at $100 even. The Athletic Association says ris- ing ice -time costs have been cov- ered by good profits from the Bean Festival this summer. Seven teams will be taking to the ice this year, including the 18 and 19 -year-old Juvenile team, provided interest holds up. Anyone who missed hockey reg- istration on Saturday can contact Janet McKinnon at 236-4924. Also new this year is a hockey school run by volunteer instructors Dave Erb, Jeff Memer, and Kevin Geoffrey. Although the school is not con- • nected with the MAA, Erb says any surplus funds generated from the $25 registration fees will be donated to the Association. Erb said he thought the five straight nights of traimng offered in the October 16-21 session would give Zurich players of all ages a' better start on their season of com- petitive play. The Zurich teams, he says, have to compensate for the disadvantage of getting the ice in the arena at a later date than most others in the area. On Saturday, Erb said he was hoping for 50 students to sign up. Anyone not yet signed up can call him at 236-7350.
