SUPERIOR QUALITY MEATS

I've heard about hockey
parents - those hardy souls
who pack up the car and
start out in the dark of
winter week-end mornings.
They tighten skate boot
laces with numb fingers;
then wrap their hands
around steaming cups of
coffee and take their seats
behind, their team's bench.
Hockey parents may seem
subdued that early in the
morning, but once the puck
is dropped they find new life
and new lungs. Most hockey

parents. I've met are quite
vociferous, but the one with
the cowbell stands out from
the crowd.
After the game. they wait
outside the dressing room
door until the coach says
they can go in. Then each
collects his player with all
his paraphernalia and heads
for home.
A model hockey parent,' I
think, encourages his son, or
daughter, for a good try
whether the game was won
or lost. Kids have plenty of
time to learn about their
mistakes. For the time be-
ing, let them have fun while
they're learning.
The parents help unload
the car, warm up in front of
a fireplace or register and
maybe eat the breakfast
they didn't have time for
earlier. They'll repeat the
whole process in a week or
three days or one day,
whenever it's necessary for
their budding hockey star.
Hockey parents must be
among the most devoted in
the world.
I never dreamed my sister
and brother-in-law would
become hockey parents, not
because they're not devoted
to their kids but because
they don't know much about
hockey. They didn't even
like it much.
I realized my brother-in-
law knew little about the
game, when he admitted I
knew more than he did.
This is the second year
their youngest son has
played hockey, and my
sister and brother-in-law are
learning almost as quickly
as he is. When the referee
blows the whistle, they no
longer look at me and ask,
"Why'd he do that?"
Last year I was introduced
to the world of hockey
parents by attending two or
three games through the
season, Recently I gained
real insight into the situation
by spending a hockey
weekend with them.
Friday night was Junior A
game at the London Gardens
the little guys learn a lot
from watching the older
guys, and my nephew, Brian,
has become quite a fan of the
London Knights. His
autograph collection grew to
six that night.
Saturday afternoon was
his house league game at
their local arena. "Our
team" lost 7 to 2, but since
Brian scored both goals, it
was well worth my while to
go. Most of the boys are at
the delightful stage, where
winning or losing is not the
most important thing. Play-
ing is what counts.
That attitude was a bless-
ing the next morning, when
Brian's all-star team, in the
first game they had played
together, lost 14, 15, or 15 to
1. (We lost track), The coach
DENTAL GRAD — Janet
Bilcke, daughter of Mr. and

was happy, He explained
that, in' he first game his all
star team played last year,
they only touched the puck
three times.
It was a thrill for the boys
to play at the Gardens where
the "big team" played.
You might think that, after
seeing three hockey games
in less, than forty-eight hours
and rising at seven o'clock
Sunday morning to rush to
the last one, I would decline
going to another one Sunday
afternoon, But I didn't, By
that time, I found myself
becoming "hooked".
The 'final game was
another house league affair,
which Brian's team won 2 to
1. In the last few minutes, I
heard myself yelling, "Sit on
it, Andrew!"
I didn't mean that remark
derogatorialy. Andrew was
the name of the goalie on
Brian's team, and in my opi-
nion, the most, effective way
for him to keep the puck out
of the net was to sit on it.
And it worked!
After the game, Brian's
coach told him he'd play
again Wednesday night at
six o'clock and Saturday
morning at eight. '
"I gotta work!" I explain-
ed to Brian later, But give
me a few weeks to
recuperate and I'll be back
for another hockey weekend.
Being a hockey aunt instead
of a hockey parent lets me
get away with that.
