THE CHILLIWACK PROGRESS, Wednesday, September 20, 1989 B1 3 Sports Caps BG JlnlL heire odd '90, Amidlirews cautioned that $40,000 is a gross sales amount and not the profit they make from the sales. Profits generated by the sales went back into minor hockey. Poth noted that the loss of the team was more than just a financial one to the hockey community. "There was a place for junior boys to play junior hockey if they were talented enough to do that." The Eagles games also served as a meeting place for people involved in minor hockey to meet, he added. "It was a chance to get together about hockey," Poth said.

"It was a social gathering of sorts." loss is being noticed. Andrews said the 36 home games plus practises and exhibition matches played by the Eagles at the Coliseum generated "about $16,000" in rentals. But other groups have stepped in and increased their ice-time at the rink, so the team's loss has been softened, he said. "It's not going to impact us that detrimentally because other teams have taken the ice-time." The Chilliwack Minor Hockey Association will also notice a "loss of revenue probably to the tune of $40,000" at the concession stand it operates at the rink, association president Tom Poth said. But Poth negotiating with several different groups to bring a team here.

He expects a deal to be made "by the end of the calender year" as the club would need the rest of the time to organize for September 1990. Andrews would not say what owners the district is negotiating with but he did note that there is "group of people" locally who have expressed an interest in buying a portion of any new club that locates in Chilliwack. Chilliwack mayor John Les is also confident the town hasn't seen the last of the BCJHL. "This town has supported hockey well in the past." Meanwhile, this year's hockey season has started and the Eagles by Stephen Gold Chilliwack District recreation manager Jack Andrews says he is "100 per cent sure there will be a (B.C. Junior Hockey League) team here (in Chilliwack) next year (the 199091 hockey season)." The district is "presently negotiating with several owner-operators to bring a team in here next year," Andrews said.

"I think most people realize we're a top location" for a junior team, he said. "I think we'll be able to pick the one we want." For the last two years the Chilliwack Eagles Hockey club played in the BCJHL but the team was told to leave town by Chilliwack council in February after problems between the community and the owner of the team. The team operated out of the rink owned by the district, the Chilliwack Coliseum. As this year's hockey season gets underway there is no BCJHL team in Chilliwack but Andrews is confident that will not be the situation this time next year. "There is a realization that we are a good hockey community," he said.

Negotiations with the district to buy out the owner of the Eagles started early this year but fell through in May when the team was moved to the Ladner Arena in Delta, Andrews said. Since then the district has been Tallas makes team: Chilliwack hockey goalie Rob Tallas, 16, has been sent by the Victoria Cougars to play hockey this season with a junior team in Nelson. Tallas went to the Cougars' main camp in the provincial capitol Aug. 28-Sept. 11 and from there was assigned to the junior team by Cougars coach Wayne Naka.

"Wayne said he wanted me to get more experience. He wanted me to get as many games in as possible," said Tallas. Tallas has spent the last three years playing Bantam AAA in Chilliwack and this summer was invited to the B.C. Provincial under-17 camp in Osoyoos at the end of July. Tallas was the final cut for the goaltending position at the provincial camp.

Naka saw Tallas at the camp and invited him to the Cougars' camp, Tallas said. The Cougars will pay Tallas' living expenses in Nelson. And Tallas expects to play 30-35 games for his new team thisyear. Wavan wins A division: Wavan took the A division title at the year-end tournament in the Wild Willies Slo-pitch league Aug. 19.

Sports and Ski Magazine took the division title in the mixed league finale and Value Mattress took the C. GS Stucco took the regular season crown with 35 points followed by Stot-ties in second with 30 and three teams, Ernie's Lounge Lizards, Wavan and Olympic Flame, tied for third with 28 points each. Ernie's also took the beer league title for the team that drank the most beer over the course of the season. Value Mattress picked up the trophy for finishing at the bottom of the 20-team league. Value finished the year with two points.

The order of finish and points for the other teams in the league were: Willies Outlaws, 27; Walden Log Homes, 25; and Appliances, 22; Royal Rowdies, 20; Vicron Drywall, 18; Airport Flyers, 18; Doc's Autobody, 16; Sport and Ski, 16; Unruh's Team Alpine, 14; Spinaleer Wood Products, 11; Homer's, Friendly Mikes, Talisman, 5 and Pacific Brewers 4. Swimming changes: Chris Wetter is the new coach of the Cultus-Chilliwack Stingrays Swim Club. Wetter, the past assistant coach, replaces Rob MacAulay who has returned to university. Also at the clubs annual general meeting, Tom Holmes was named the new president of the Stingrays. And as the club's season wraps up for the year, it would like to thank its sponsors for their generosity and support.

Badminton starts: The sar- dis Badminton Club has started playing Monday and Thursday evenings from 7-10 p.m. at the Sardis Elementary School. Everyone welcome. Women's Metro Soccer Annies come from behind comeback with their first two goals both of which were "chip shots over the goalie's head" from about 25 yards out, said Olmpic coach Mark Toop. Carolyn Huesken notched Olympic's third goal on a penalty shot and Tania Jonssen closed scoring with another 25-yarder over the keeper.

The two local squad's next games are against each other Sunday at 2 p.m. at the Chilliwack Fairgrounds. The Rosedale Annies came from behind with four straight goals to knock off the Surrey Dolphins 4-1 in Vancouver Women's Metro Soccer League Division 2 play Sunday. Karina Verdonk led Annies' attack in the second half with their first two, and then tallied the final goal of the match for a hat-trick. Verdonk had a busy day as she filled in as goalie in the first half.

Lea McNabb scored Annies' other goal. Surrey scored the on- ly goal of the first half "even though we dominated play," said player-coach Laura Schulz.
