Coach Charles Akey says that it will be a tough job rebuilding the team for this season. (Photo by Ellis) ItVhotkeyiiiil#11- Sportalk BY PAUL ELLIS 'Getting back to the fundamentals" is a phrase which has almost become the motto of minor hockey enthusiasts in the last few years, as coaches and trainers try to stress the irriportance of skating, stick -handling and passing skills in young players. For many, professionally -Operated hockey school are out of range, especially because of the cost invovled. To provide the opportunity for area youngsters to attend an organized hockey school, which would stress the basics of the game, several local people have set up the Seaforth Hockey School; The school, which runs for ten sessions from September 26 to October 10, was given its life by Charles Akey, coach of the Junior D Centenaires. He was the driving force behind getting the school on the road last year fo,r the first time, and it suffered the usual grewing pains, including the lack of people to organize and run it. But this year the school was helped along with aid from volunteers like Don Morton, Terry ' Craig, Bill Weber. Julie Twynham, Mark Mcllwain and Brendan- and Rob Lane. A few others are involved. including Recreation Director Bryan Peter. Gar Baker, of Harpurhey, has been holding the Gar Baker Goalie School in the . past few years and his' classes drew prospective goalies from as far away as Goderich and Zurich. But he always lacked players on the ice to shoot pucks at the goalies in net. The answer...amalgamate with the Seaforth Hockey School. The goalie school got its shooters, and the hockey scho ol got • some proper goal - tenders. "We're trying to upgrade the level the basic skills (among young players)" says Mr. Akey:As well, the school was "started out of the concern that the hockey schools were getting out of hand (financially). We felt that we had the talent here." The school teaches strong•skating, good stick control of the puck and proper passing skills. A good deal of emPhasis is placed on skating because "it's basic to the game. We teach the fundamentals here, so that when the players go back to their teams," explains Mr. Akey, "the coaches cen emphasize technique. They don't have to spent time teaching the basics." * * * * * * And if you think it's just a little early to start talking about hockey, you are obviously not involved in the sport to any great extent. Most team's- are, already well into pre -season practices, and the Natiohal Hockey League is underway with exhibi tion matches. I would rather not think about it, but fall is here, which means that the snow is only a month Or • so away. The Junior Centenaires know it.. and as of last Monday, they have started practising for the upcoming season. The 1980/81 season should prove to be interesting for the Centenaires, who will be faced with a major team rebuilding since ten of last year's players aren't coming back. Five were lost to the over age player hile, and five for a variety of other reasons, including college and university. Dennis Neilsen. who played both Junior D and Midget two years ago, and was a leader on defence for the Centenai res last season, was accepted in tryouts for the Junior B team in St. Marys. He'll be putting in his ice time for them this time instead of for the local squad. • Coach Akey is optimistic about the new season, but he realizes that it will be tough, Icing a top team with only six or seven returning players. With 26 showing up to Monday's tryout the coach hopes that some new talent, perhaps from the midget level, will appear to form the Centenaires. THE BOSS—Charles Akey, coach of the Seaforth Centenaires, ' held the first team practise for the season Monday, and explained the.strategy he plans to use this year. He also made it known that he is the boss. — (Photo by Ellis) Broomball set for season opener The Seaforth Broomball , League had its first meeting of the new 1980/81 season Sept. 15 with is new execu- tive.
