Times-Advocate, 1987-06-10, Page 16Page 2A Times -Advocate, June 10, 1987 More than 250 participants in h Athletes Honoured We wish to pass on our congratulations to all of the athletes who were honoured at Wednesday's awards night banquet at South Huron District High School. There were 258 students participating on 22 different teams. Of this large groups of competitors there were two playing on five teams. One was Lee O'Rourke. Lee O'Rourke also won the Panther award. This honour goes to the graduating student for outstanding achievement and con- tribution to athletics at South Huron through the five year term. This honour is well deserved by Lee. She just completed a very successful year in track and field winning Huron -Perth, WOSSA and OFSSA regionals and placing third in all of Ontario in the long jump. OFSSA, the all -Ontario high school athletic association has issued a code for players and coaches and they were printed in the program and we will pass them along now. Code for Players Play the game for the game's sake. Be generous in winning. Be graceful in losing. Be fair at all times. Be obedient to the rules. Work for the good of the team. Accept the decisions of the officials gracefully, Trust in the honesty of your opponents. Conduct yourself at all times with honour and dignity. Recognize and applaud honestly and wholeheartedly the ef- forts of your teammates or opponents regardless of colour, creed or race. Sports Spotlight by Ross Haugh Code for Coaches The game is played for the sake of enjoyment. The rules of the game are to be regarded as mutual agreements, the spirit or letter of which no one should try to evade or break. Visiting teams and spectators are guests and should be treated .as such. No advantages, except those of superior skill are to be sought over others. Officials and opponents are to beregarded and treated as honest in' intention. Decisions of officials no matter how unfair they may seem are to be accepted without outward appearance of vexation. '1'o win is always desirable. But to win at any cost defeats .the purpose of the game. Losing can be a triumph when the best has been given. The greatest good to the greatest number is the ideal. The Golden Rule in sport it to treat other persons as you, yourself would like to be treated. • Still Time for Tickets Anyone wishing to join the close to 600 baseball fans from Huron county on their trip to see the Blue Jays in action on July 1 can still reserve a seat on one of the buses and game tickets. A call to one of the three locations of Ellison Travel will do the trick. All profits from Huron county day will go to the two Big Brothers and Big Sister organizations in Huron. Gremlins Got In We wish to make an apology and correction concerning an item in this column a couple of weeks ago. We were talking about the new outside basketball courts at SHDHS. South Huron coach Terry O'Rourke was quoted as saying, "Be careful with the new baskets and please no dunking." Somehow through a typographical error it appeared as, "please no drink- ing." Sorry, Terry. JUNIOR HAWKS EXECUTIVE - The executive of the Exeter and district junior Hawks hockey team for the 1987-88 season has Been selected.
