Swift Current Wins in Amateur Sports
Mr.
Wall:
— Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise to commemorate the efforts of a
number of amateur sports enthusiasts and teams in Swift Current
over the past couple of weeks. This past weekend, Mr. Speaker, the
Swift Current Pee Wee Mustangs won the Provincial A Tier II
Championship. The Pee Wee Mustangs beat Melfort in the final, Mr.
Speaker. The Mustang’s coaching staff includes Coach Larry
Johnson, the assistant coach is Lance Vachon, the manager is Cindy
Slusar, and the trainer is Mark Marshall. On the weekend of the 17
and 18, Mr. Speaker, the Swift Current Under-12 Girls Indoor
Soccer Team captured the provincial championship. That’s the
first Swift Current soccer team ever to win a provincial title.
Congratulations to the team and to the coaching staff, Dale Perry
and Anita Evans for their efforts in that regard. And that same
weekend, Mr. Speaker, in Swift Current, the Swift Current Bantam
Tier II . . . (inaudible) . . . Eliminators won the provincial
championship on March 17 and 18 in Swift Current. They defeated
Kindersley in the final, Mr. Speaker.
And
a note, in the game that won the tournament for them, one of the
goal scorers was Bobbi-Jo Slusar, Mr. Speaker, and I mention her
not because Bobbi-Jo is a girl but because she’s a great
hockey player. Congratulations to the players and the teams in
Swift Current, Mr.
Speaker.
