Students break down walls at Burnett U.S.-based program with anti-bullying message aims to change school culture for the better by Matthew Hoekstra Staff Reporter Hundreds of students filled the J.N. Burnett Secondary gymnasium Tuesday morning. One stood up, faced a teacher and practised one of the best habits a person can have. She expressed gratitude. “I just want to thank you for teaching me volleyball,” the student said. “During the times I thought I wasn’t good enough, you showed me that I was capable of more than I thought I was.”

The unusual event took place during an unusual assembly. This week the Granville Avenue high school is hosting Breaking Down the Walls—a program facilitated by the California-based organization Learning for Living, which aims to change school culture for the better with an antibullying message. All students took part in hour-long assemblies Tuesday morning. Smaller groups of students will take part in further activities over the next two days, in which students will learn to interact with their peers, help bring a school community together and create an environment that’s inclusive, safe and supportive. Cliques are often found in high schools, and with Burnett’s international students numbering over 100—nearly 10 per cent of the student body—teens can feel unconnected and isolated. See Page 3

Mountie cleared after drunk man was injured Man wound up in hospital after falling by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter A Richmond RCMP officer has been cleared of any wrongdoing in an incident involving a male who sustained “serious injury to his face” while being taken into custody on Aug. 20. The incident sparked an investigation by the Independent Investigations Office of B.C., which is responsible for “conducting investigations into all officer-related incidents which result in death or ‘serious harm’...within the province of British Columbia,” the report states. On Aug. 20, a local Mountie responded to a complaint of a person causing a disturbance“near the Steveston Marina.” The officer became concerned for the well-being of the person due to what the officer believed was the man’s “high level of intoxication.” “The officer decided to arrest the affected person. During the arrest, both the officer and the affected person reportedly fell to the ground causing an injury to the affected person’s face.” Neither the name of the injured man, nor the police officer, were revealed in the report. “In this case, I have considered the advice provided by the Information and Privacy Commissioner. In this report, I will not be using the

name of the affected person or of any other person involved in this matter,” wrote Richard Rosenthal, chief civilian director, in the report dated Nov. 26. The injured man was interviewed and said he’d come to Richmond to work as a fisherman on a local fishing boat, and had been in town for about a week. On the day of the incident, he had been drinking steadily throughout the day. “He had gone to a local pub for supper around 7 p.m. and indicated that they did not have what he wanted which...may have made him ‘a little grumpy’. He said that he had consumed one drink at the pub and then left. He purchased a 750 ml bottle of (whiskey) at the liquor store which was attached to the pub.” The man said he then strolled to a nearby dock, about a block from the pub, for a little privacy, which was when he noticed a film crew was in the process of shooting a TV series. “He stated that he started talking with a male and a female who were working at the movie set. During that period of time, he had ‘maybe five drinks’ of whiskey. “ The next thing he remembered was waking up in the hospital and said he didn’t recognize the two police officers who were with him. A witness said the man was stumbling and falling and “came into me and asked me if he could slap me in the face. “(He) lifted his wrist put it in a fist position and slowly started push-

ing towards me. At that point I just moved to the side and let his swing momentum take him to the (ground)...” Another witness, who was working with the filming crew on the night of the incident, told the Independent Investigations Office investigator that he saw the intoxicated man fall. As the RCMP officer tried to handcuff the man, he was “so drunk that he sort went around in circles and took the officer down with him and smacked his face on the boardwalk.” The victim then passed out at the scene. Another witness said he believed the man was “trying to run” and that his feet became entangled with the police officer’s. Rosenthal wrote that the “legal issue to be considered in this case” was whether the police officer was “in any way criminally culpable for either causing harm to or allowing harm to come to the affected person during the course of his arrest.” But Rosenthal found that there was “no evidence to suggest any application of any force caused the injury.” In this case, the subject officer was lawfully attempting to detain the affected person and take him into custody. The fall to the ground was an unforeseeable accident and any application of force against the affected person was minimal. As such, there is no reason to believe that the subject officer committed any offence.”

Making gratitude a habit

Eric Yung is new board chair

From Page 1 “What we’re trying to do with this program is literally break down those walls so we have a school where people know each other, they’re connected, and they’re transformed,” said principal Bert Wiens. Bringing the program to Richmond for the first time was the idea of former principal Jason Leslie, who heard good things from a neighbouring district. At Tuesday’s assembly, facilitator Dean Whellams quickly had students’ attention as he spoke about habits, everything from putting on pants to French fry dips to texting. With the ice broken, he told the gym of grades 8, 9 and 10 students about making gratitude—being thankful, being appreciative—a habit. It’s one of the best habits a person can have, he said. Whellams asked students if they knew someone in the gym who had

a positive impact on their life—and if they had ever told that person as much. “Think about that,” he said. “You’ve had someone whose had a really positive, profound impact on your life, and you’ve never actually told them that.”

He gave some students that chance Tuesday to show how powerful such a message can be. One girl stood up, faced a friend and managed a few words before tears got in the way. Lessons from Breaking Down the Walls won’t

end this week. Principal Wiens said the school intends to carry the program forward with a large club of students and staff. “That’s a key,” he said. “Bringing someone in for a few days is a good start.”

The Richmond Board of Education has a new chair. Veteran trustee Eric Yung was elected chair Monday night, on the same night four new trustees were sworn in: Sandra Nixon, Alice S. Wong, Jonathan Ho and Ken Hamaguichi. “A little frightening, a little aweinspiring...a little bit of everything,” Yung said of his reaction to being elected as chair. “I’m not sure it’s sunk in yet. I’m honoured by the faith and trust my fellow trustees have given me and I will do my very best to live up to that.” Yung served as vice chair of the board last year, under chair Donna Sargent, and he said they made a great team, and he learned a lot from her leadership. Both Yung and Sargent were nominated for the position of chair and accepted the nominations. Debbie Tablotney was voted vicechair.

Asked what challenges lie ahead for the board, Yung said foremost is helping four new trustees get oriented, up to speed and knowledgable on local issues, noting that the 2015/16 budget process is around the corner, and trustees need to “make informed decisions.” Funding will once again be an issue, with schools and administrators challenged with looking at ways to “maximize dollars and ways to support the children.” Work will continue on a complete and comprehensive facilities review, which was launched 18 months ago, Yung said. The district will look at projecting its needs through 2021. While enrollment has continued to decline for many years in Richmond, Yung said current projections indicate that enrollment will flatten out in the next few years, with a period of modest growth as 2021 nears. If the city continues with its plans to significantly densify the downtown core’s residential population through 2041, that means the city will need a city centre elementary school. Yung said building a school in the heart of the city would be “an enormous undertaking”, and an even greater challenge than the most recent school the district built: Brighouse Elementary.

Pedestrian dies after struck by car at night Woman, 75, was trying to cross the road at Westminster and Gilbert A 75-year-old Richmond woman died of her injuries Monday night after being struck by a car while crossing Westminster Highway, just west of Gilbert Road around 10 p.m. Richmond RCMP Cpl. Stephanie Ashton said investigators believe that bad weather and the spot where the woman tried to cross the road, may have been factors in the crash. The driver of the car remained at the scene, and the Integrated Collision Analyst Section was brought in to assist with the investigation, which resulted in the road remaining closed for five hours, Ashton said. “This is a tragedy; our

thoughts go out to the family of the victim,” she said. While police have spoken to a number of witnesses at the scene, anyone with information about the collision is asked to call the Richmond RCMP at 604-2781212. Ashton urged pedestrians to exercise extreme caution when crossing the road, taking not of the reduced visibilty and weather conditions. They should cross in marked crosswalks, wear reflective clothing, make eye contact with the driver before crossing, and make sure the vehicle stops before stepping off the curb. A road safety video, at tinyurl.com/ SLOWcampaign, noted that 2,400 pedestrians are injured, and 58 are killed in crashes every year in B.C. Pedestrians are urged to Stop, Look, Observe and Walk, she said. —Martin van den Hemel

Car thief nabbed after stealing three vehicles A 32-year-old man is in custody after stealing three cars last Friday. At 8:17 a.m., a woman called Surrey RCMP to report that someone had driven off in her red 1995 Honda Civic, which she had left running in the driveway of her residence. At 9:36 a.m. in Coquitlam, the owner of a 2008 red Kia reported that a man had driven up quickly and shouted at him to get out of his vehicle and leave the keys in the ignition. The suspect then allegedly fled the area in a 2008 red Kia, leaving behind the stolen Honda Civic. Afterwards, witnesses reported seeing the red Kia being driven erratically on Highway 1 through Burnaby. It appears the stolen vehicle was driven through Vancouver before being dumped in the 5800 block of Dover Crescent in Richmond. The suspect then allegedly got into a stationary red BMW and was reported by witnesses driving erratically in a number of areas of Richmond, police say. The stolen BMW was seen heading over the Knight Street Bridge. The suspect was nabbed after colliding with Vancouver Police vehicles at Fraser Street and SE Marine Drive. “Numerous police resources were involved in the safe apprehension of this suspect. This case highlights the effectiveness of the policing community to work together in sharing information for the shared goal of apprehending the person responsible for these multiple crimes of opportunity” said Sgt. Annie Linteau, spokesperson for the RCMP Lower Mainland District.

Planners collecting feedback on area surrounding future facility by Matthew Hoekstra Staff Reporter City officials are seeking design input on the areas surrounding Richmond’s most ambitious civic project since the Richmond Olympic Oval. Detailed design work is already underway and sand has preloaded a site in Minoru Park for the Minoru Complex—a combined pool and seniors centre facility scheduled to open in 30 months. Planners are welcoming opinions on the so-called public realm surrounding the building. The public realm, deemed “critical to the success of the project” by Mayor Malcolm Brodie, includes the landscaping, way-finding, pedestrian walkways and roads. According to planners, the proposed design aims to support Minoru Park’s role as a signature park, establish a unique identity, promote health and wellness and create strong links to other facilities and neighbourhoods. The city is accepting completed online surveys until Dec. 14. A proposed public realm design is expected to be presented to city council in January. The 110,000-squarefoot Minoru Complex is budgeted at $80 million, and is scheduled for completion in June 2017. Surveys and plans are at LetsTalkRichmond.ca.

A scene in which Holmes’ Zangler meets Beatty’s fake Zangler is truly hilarious theatre. Also notable is Kate Blackburn, stepping into her biggest role yet as Polly Baker, and

William Ford Hopkins as the strong-willed villain Lank Hawkins. The ensemble cast and its explosive energy is equally entertaining. Crazy For You gives us a feel-good love story basted in beautiful music, reaching high heights in so many areas it’s not worth raising a quibble. Maybe just a glass of egg nog.

Or a day of Christmas shopping that ticks all the boxes. Or eating turkey that’s been basted like a piece of poultry has never been basted before. Terrible similes, yes, but what’s on stage at Gateway Theatre this month is anything but—it’s a holiday treat. Crazy For You is a musical whose many moving parts work so well together—delivering a high-energy ride set to Gershwin’s greatest hits. Bachelor Bobby Child (Gaelan Beatty) is dreaming of a theatre career in the Big Apple while working at the family bank under his mother’s thumb. She dispatches him to the middle of nowhere to foreclose on a property, which happens to be an old theatre. Smitten by the owner’s daughter Polly Baker (Kate Blackburn), Bobby tucks away the bank papers and disguises himself as New York stage sensation Bela Zangler (Jonathan Holmes) and sets out to mount a show that will save the theatre and win Polly’s love. That’s the plan anyway. It starts to fall apart when Polly falls for Bobby’s disguise— not Bobby—and the real Bela Zangler shows up. It’s a surprisingly rich story with a good mix of laughs, especially with the arrival of the Fodors—that couple with the gift for guidebooks. Musical director Chris King creates magic in the pit with a 10-piece orchestra that effortlessly sets the soundtrack for a long list of memorable Gershwin songs. Choreographer Julie Tomaino’s talent also shines through, as she takes a strong cast through the

Jovanni Sy, Artistic Director at Gateway Theatre tells us, “Gateway Theatre’s winter musical is a beloved holiday tradition. I’m particularly excited about this year’s show Crazy For You. There’s tap dancing, comedy, romance, and, of course, an all-Gershwin score. Crazy For You is like a love letter to the MGM musicals of yesteryear.” On stage we have twenty-four triple-threat performers from Richmond and the surrounding areas under the direction of Barbara Tomasic, last year’s leading lady in The King and I. This year’s musical promises to be a hit with audiences.

EDITORIAL: Coming soon—more tax

etro Vancouver residents will find out this week how local mayors want to raise taxes to pay for transit improvements. It will lead to an extremely short honeymoon period for newlyelected mayors and councillors. The unhappiness with elected officials will come when hard-hit taxpayers find out just how much more of their money mayors want to go towards TransLink. Most people favour improvements to transit, but they want someone else to pay for them. There won’t be any happiness if a car tax is proposed. Nor will there be a lot of cheering for a higher provincial sales tax, or other new taxes to fund an ambitious transit plan that mayors unveiled last spring.

The Mayors Council has decided which tax it favours, but won’t say what it is until Thursday. Its proposal will go to a TransLink referendum, to be held in the spring. Current TransLink revenue is far short of paying for any of the improvements the mayors are calling for. A car tax was part of the plan to pay for TransLink when it was first set up in 1998. When the TransLink board, which at that time was made up of elected officials, tried to proceed with it, it was met with howls of outrage from taxpayers. Many of them lived in areas like Surrey, Langley and Maple Ridge, where transit service was minimal when compared to that in the core urban area of Vancouver, Burnaby and New Westminster. The car tax became such a politi-

cal football that no one wanted to touch it. The NDP government, facing a provincial election, wouldn’t approve it — even though it had granted TransLink the power to impose it. The BC Liberals, smelling power, also decried it. TransLink has thus received most of its additional money since that time by raising property taxes, boosting the gas tax to 17 cents a litre and jacking up bus fares, which are among the most expensive in North America. It cannot expand services without some new sources of revenue. However, reliance on the car tax is problematic, as many areas of Metro Vancouver remain badly served by transit. Many suburban drivers ask why they should pay a tax on cars they must own to get around. Mean-

while, Vancouver residents can easily do without cars, and in fact more and more of them are choosing to do just that. A boost to the provincial sales tax is fairer, and regional road tolling, which apparently requires years of study to implement, would also bring a much-needed element of fairness to the transportation challenges which face everyone, whether they drive or use transit. Mayors were hoping for provincial carbon tax revenue, but that request was quickly denied by Transportation Minister Todd Stone. Indeed, the revenue from that tax is used to reduce other taxes such as income tax, so giving some of it to TransLink would mean boosting income taxes. —Black Press

Clark on climate, clawbacks, credit cards

B.C. Views Tom Fletcher A year-end interview with Premier Christy Clark. For an extended version see the opinion section at richmondreview.com Question: Are you still confident that we’re going to see a major LNG project approved by the end of 2014? Premier Christy Clark: We’re still in negotiations with Petronas and Shell, so I don’t know if it will be by the end of 2014, but I’m hoping in the next few months. [Days after this interview, Petronas announced a delay in their investment decision until 2015.] Q: talked to a couple of SFU climate mitigation specialists, and they agreed that it’s unlikely to the point of impossible to have a major LNG industry and still meet Gordon Campbell’s ambitious greenhouse gas target of a 33 per cent reduction by 2020. What do you think? Clark: I think that we may prove them wrong. Many of these facilities, not all of them, will be partly or fully electrically powered up, so that reduces those impacts, and there’s going to be a real incentive to invest in new technology to minimize that as well. I think the bigger picture is what really matters, which

Tom Fletcher/Black Press Premier Christy Clark in her Victoria office after the fall legislature session passed new tax and environmental rules for natural gas exports.

is that in shipping 82 million tonnes of liquefied natural gas to Asia, we help them get off coal and other dirtier sources of oil, and that is the biggest contribution that we’ve ever made to reducing climate change. Q: Ontario and Quebec have taken a page from your book. They have seven conditions for an oil pipeline, Energy East, which involves conversion of gas pipelines and taking Alberta oil to the East Coast. What do you think? Clark: I think they took our five conditions and elaborated on them. So you’ve got British Columbia, Alberta, now Ontario and Quebec, all

signed on to some version of the five conditions. And of course Enbridge and Kinder Morgan as well. Q: What about the conditions they have added? Clark: One of the things they say they want to protect against is a shortage of natural gas coming to Ontario and Quebec. These are the same two provinces that have put a moratorium on extracting natural gas. They want to make sure that we do it here, good enough for us to do, and send it to them, but they won’t do that themselves. I look at their last two conditions, and I roll my eyes a little bit. Q: All the way to New

Brunswick, they’ve basically bought the anti-hydraulic fracturing myth? Clark: Yes. Somehow they all watched an American mockumentary or whatever you call it, and believed it. Here in British Columbia we do fracking better than anywhere in the world. It is the gold standard. Q: Finance Minister Mike de Jong says we have a surplus estimated at more than $400 million for this fiscal year, and he suggested that much of that would have to go to pay off deficits from previous years. Of course the opposition is interested in welfare rates and in particular ending child

support clawbacks. What’s your view? Clark: Like any family that’s been through tough times, the first thing you need to do when you get back to finding a job and making an income again, is to pay off your credit cards. And that’s what we’re going to do. We are going to see if we can find ways to improve some of the programs over time, but can’t do that until we can afford it. It’s typical, the NDP want us to spend the money before we have it. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press. tfletcher@ blackpress.ca

letters Richmond sign bylaw needs some changes Editor: Copy of a letter sent to Richmond City Hall: Re: Sign Bylaw 5560. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A sign permit is required for each sign that a business erects on the exterior of their building/unit. It is encouraged that 50% of the signâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s content be in English.â&#x20AC;? May I humbly suggest that the above sign bylaw should read, or perhaps a facsimile thereof: â&#x20AC;&#x153;All business signs on the exterior of buildings / units must (Note: not required, not encouraged, no percentage, no mention of any ethnic group, etc.) be in at least one or both of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two official languages, as well as any other language of the business ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s choice, the preferred official language in Richmond being English.â&#x20AC;? There should be one equitable law for allâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;especially for immigrants whose presence in this country is a privilege and not a right to dictate what laws of the land they wish or not wish to obey. Furthermore their particular

The U.S. Navy Seals of the medical world Editor: Canada is deploying troops to Sierra Leone. These are not just any troops they are members of The Royal Canadian Medical Service. Their latest distinction came from NATO when they won an award as the best medical service in NATO. The Royal Canadian Medical Service was running the military hospital in Kandaharâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; nearly all soldiers wounded in Afghanistan came through that facility. If a soldier wounded on the battlefield survived to make it to the Canadian hospital they had a 98% chance of survival! That is amazing! Of course there were many factors including new procedures, new technology and the best training that a military medical service has ever enjoyed. These guys are the U.S. Navy Seals of the medical world! If you are sick or injured and you fall into Canadian hands your chances just got better. Canadians can be proud that we are sending the best to Africa, not just our best the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best. This year while you are enjoying Christmas with your family please remember our Royal Canadian Medical Service troops risking their lives so that others may live. Scott Stewart Richmond

There should be one equitable law for allâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; especially for immigrants whose presence in this country is a privilege and not a right to dictate what laws of the land they wish or not wish to obey.

beef in this insistence concerning their â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chinese onlyâ&#x20AC;? signage preference is not only thoughtless to say the least but it is also rude, insolent and a slap in the face of our city councillors and yet another form of racism against the very people who once welcomed them into this, their country of choice, and with our open arms. Would they dare accept an invitation to one of their Canadian hostâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home and then sit there speaking Chinese only, just because they feel they have a right to do so, as they now

wish to do this in their place of business? I guess not, because that particular type of business person probably would not have accepted the invitation in the first place. And why would they? For the very reason why they want the Chinese-only signsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;they are already ensconced in Canada, their Chinese immigrant population is increasing and more than able to financially sustain their businesses, so they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need or really care for the Englishspeaking population, especially in Richmond, to support their businesses. Furthermore, more and more of their population are getting into the political arena to vocally and/or tacitly lend their support, depending upon the self-serving issue at hand. Think shark fin soup and Alice Wong! Where is she now with this other no-brainer issue? What an opportunity to redeem herself, now that she has had her fill of soup. Wilbur Walrond Richmond

Staff Reporter Hundreds of low-income families come each yearâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;each taking a turn to browse a room meant to put smiles on the faces of local children this Christmas. The toy room of the Richmond Christmas Fund is stuffed with new, unwrapped toys. Each child of the fundâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s registered Richmond families will get some, thanks to generous donations from the community. But the Christmas fund also helps make sure each child is given the gift of reading by stocking toy room shelves with everything from toddler board

books and Frozen readers to Harry Potter novels and Hunger Games stories. A fundraising campaignâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;ending Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;aims to keep those book shelves full. â&#x20AC;&#x153;An important aspect of our program is giving the gift of literacy,â&#x20AC;? said Elizabeth Specht, executive director of Volunteer Richmond, which administers the Christmas fund. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to make sure that every child and teenager we serve through the Christmas fund leaves with at least one book.â&#x20AC;? The Christmas fund helps nearly 2,000 Richmond residents each Christmas, including more than 800 children 15 years and

younger. Each family receives toys, games and grocery vouchers, and each child also receives at least one book. This year fund organizers are also aiming to distribute books to teenagers of registered familiesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;as long as thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enough books to go around. Cash donations that will help stock the Richmond Christmas Fund toy room with books are being collected through the crowdfunding platform BlackPress4Good, a website developed by Black Press, parent company of The Richmond Review.

Operation Red Nose helps get party-goers home safely Operation Red Nose has begun its ninth season in Richmond and 13th in Delta. The campaignâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal is to ensure that during the holiday season people and their vehicles are driven home by volunteers. This convenient and unique service is available between 9 p.m. and 3 a.m. on December 12, 13, 19, 20 and New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eve. Clients can call 604-943-0460 to arrange a ride. If you are wishing to use the service calls should be placed 30 to 45 minutes in advance of their desired pick-up time. People must have a vehicle to use Operation Red Nose. Donations from Operation Red Nose clients are greatly appreciated, with all proceeds going to help the amateur sport and the youth of our communities. Each year more than 250 dedicated volunteers take part in Operation Red Nose. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some people help at soup kitchens, or toy drives, or hamper deliveries. We hope that Operation Red Nose is another option that people can choose and help us keep our streets safe his year,â&#x20AC;? said Carlene Lewall, co-ordinator of Operation Red Nose Delta-Richmond. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a fantastic way to give back

Panther cheer teams stand loud and proud by Don Fennell

THANK YOU We are proud to be awarded Business of the Year 2014 by the Richmond Chamber of Commerce!

Sports Editor Step by step, side by side, they succeed. All-star cheerleaders, an elite group of athletes who in North America alone number 1.5 million, have made this intense physical activity an increasingly popular sport. And nowhere is the growth more apparent than in Richmond, where the Panthers All Star Cheer program is quite literally growing in leaps and bounds. One of the club’s best-known events is its annual Pink Cheer Championships, the first of the competive season in B.C. It is also the longest running, with last Saturday’s event at the Richmond Olympic Oval being the 15th consecutive. “Many local programs choose it as their first event to ensure they push their teams to get ready before Christmas, and to get valuable feedback from judges before the new year,” says Stephanie Kennedy, who along with Dawn Silver founded the Panthers a decade ago. “Many teams travel to the U.S. starting as early as December and this event is a great opportunity to get out in front of a

local and supportive crowd.” Kennedy says the Pink Cheer Championships are also presented on a smaller scale, enabling the athletes to get more comfortable in front of crowds before entering some of the larger, more intimidating events. “Unfortunately with the job action that all the schools were going through in September, many of our local high school programs had difficulty getting ready so our numbers in this area were down,” says Kennedy. “ We strongly believe that those programs that take advantage of

our event have a definite advantage moving forward. We pride ourselves on running a smooth event in which we ensure all teams have a great experience.” The Panther parents are the main force behind the smooth execution of the event and dedicate many hours to ensure it is a top-notch event. For Panthers, this event is what gives the teams a strict timeline in developing their routines and guiding the training. See Page 20

Santa’s Workshop on tap Saturday From Page 19

“We know that three weeks before the event all of our teams must be running full routines, and that by the week before, all the teams are running clean routines, meaning anything that coaches feel is not working has been changed and modified to ensure our athletes have success and feel proud of what they accomplished,” says Kennedy. The results speak for themselves, as the Panther Tiny, Mini and Youth level one teams all placed first in their

divisions. The Youth 2 and Senior 2 teams also placed first, while the first-year Senior level 4 team placed second. The prep teams also all were showcased. These teams are introductory half-year teams that only train once a week and are meant to give those new to the sport a taste of what allstar cheer is all about. “At this event we had over 40 athletes on four teams ranging in age from three to17 years old,” says Kennedy, noting the next session for the

prep teams starts in January and registration for these teams is now online at panthercheerathletics.com. Open registration for the competitive teams is also open until Jan. 1, with the next competition Jan. 10 in Chilliwack. The club’s next special event is this Saturday when it hosts Santa’s Workshop for kids 12 and under from noon to 2 p.m. Coaches will help make three handcrafted gifts for the holidays. •See photos on Page 24.

Four of AJ Sander’s former players (clockwise from left Kasey Schell, Natalie Korenic, Tamara Wong and Nicole Kelly) have joined him as associate coaches with the Richmond Ravens Midget A hockey team this season.

AJ and the associates Ravens’ bench boss welcomes four former players to coaching fold by Don Fennell Sports Editor Early in the new year AJ Sander will reach a milestone when he coaches his 1,500th game. And when that day comes, at least four of his former

players will have front row seats for the occasion. Natalie Korenic, Tamara Wong, Kasey Schell and Nicole Kelly are all associate coaches with the 2014-15 Richmond Ravens Midget A hockey team, of which Sander is the long-

time head coach. All four women played for Sander at one time or another and agree that among his many attributes, his passion for the game and dedication to his team stand out.

Ravens’ coach puts players in position to succeed From Page 21

“The thing you notice immediately is he treats the girls like hockey players, which creates a level of respect right at the start,”says Schell. “Whenever I was with my team it was like I was part of something special though I had never worked so hard while having so much fun.” Schell tended goal for the Midget A Ravens from 2009 to 2013, but first met Sander as a Bantam-aged affiliate. It was clear, she says, that Sander cared about the girls and really believed in his team.

Sander also has a knack, says Schell, of being able to adapt to any situation. Whether it’s changing a coaching mind-set to better suit the needs of his players, or making swift decisions like mixing up the lines, he’s usually on the mark. She says he also works well with his coaching staff “because we all share the same philosophy and all have a role to play within in a well-planned system.” “There is a purpose to every step we take as a team and (having played for Sander) we know exactly

what it’s like to be one of the girls so it’s easy for us to translate our experiences,” says Schell. “AJ has found a way to motivate players to work hard while having a blast at the same time.” Wong also has fond memories of being a Bantam-aged affiliate, and of being anxious to try out for the Midgets knowing that Sander “would demand the best from us every time we stepped out on the ice.” In her final season of Midget she was named captain, a responsibility she says helped her grow as a person and leader. “Playing for AJ were some of my most fun and memorable seasons playing hockey, which is why I wanted to coach and try to help provide a good experience for the girls this year,” says Wong. “The reason why AJ’s teams are successful is because the players work hard for each other, which comes from AJ’s philosophy of playing for the team and not the individual. One of his qualities I admire is that he always sees the best in his players. “ Currently studying business at University of B.C. and playing for the Richmond Devils women’s hockey team, Korenic’s

“It is great watching the girls succeed and to see them grow as individuals.“ — AJ Sander

first memory of Sander as a coach is from tryouts during her first year of Midget. It also happened to Sander’s first year coaching female hockey. “I actually don’t remember anything from the tryouts themselves, but I remember him calling me into the room to tell me if I had made the team or not. I remember him sitting there, surrounded by his team of assistant coaches, and telling me that I was a strong skater but needed to improve my shot. My first thought was he’s going to cut me. Then with a completely straight face, he said:‘You’re on the team. See you Monday.’That was it. I was so shocked. But that’s pretty typical of AJ. You never know what he’s thinking, but you always know that the gears are spinning in his head.” Korenic says the three years playing for AJ were her three best in hockey. She says he has an uncanny ability to take a group of players and turn them into a cohesive and winning team. “We made to provincials

in my first year, and the team has made it every year since,” notes Korenic. “We made it to the championship game in my second year, and the team has also made it to the final every year since. The goal of the team is never (simply just) to make it to the provincials but to win it. Setting such a goal creates constant motivation. “ In Korenic’s second and third years of Midget her team lost in the Provincial Championship game. The players were devastated but Sander could not have been more proud. “His pride and faith in his players is what makes them so loyal to him. This loyalty and belief in his system is a large contributor to the success of the team,” she says. Just as with his players, Sander puts a lot of trust in his assistant coaches and affords them a lot of input. Korenic says it has already helped to build her confidence as a coach. Another former Ravens’ goalkeeper who is now officiating in the South Coast Female Hockey League,

Kelly says her lone regret in hockey is not playing for Sander earlier. “AJ is on another level as a great coach,” says Kelly. “He puts everything into coaching to make sure it’s the greatest season a player can have. It doesn’t matter if you’re a first-year player or a third-year player, he wants everyone to learn something to take away. AJ has made me want to be one of those coaches that (players) will look back and say: ‘Wow, she was a fantastic coach.’” Kelly says Sanders’ pregame speeches are so inspiring that even now as a coach she’s pumped. “He just says exactly what comes to mind and what needs to be done, but I wish I would have recorded some of them because they would end up in movies,” she says. “I thought I learned a lot having him coach me, but I’ve learned even more coaching with him. He thinks on another level. He’ll have an answer before most coaches think of the question.” Kelly almost quit hockey before playing for Sander. It was no longer fun. Then she got a call from Sander before tryouts asking her to “come out and just see how it goes.” “It was the best decision I could have made,” she says. “AJ and the coaching staff made me realize why I fell in love with the sport in the first place. I learned more in that one season than I had in the previous

10. It was the best season I have ever had in 15 years of playing sports.” Sander was himself just a teen when he began his coaching career, which has now spanned three decades. Yet the National Coaching Certification Program advanced one graduate still approaches every game with the same enthusiasm. His greatest reward is seeing his players demonstrate that same passion—and in the case of Korenic, Wong, Schell and Kelly—to give back as coaches. “It is great watching the girls succeed and to see them grow as individuals,” says Sander, who has brought back former players every season to help coach the Midget A Ravens. “It started with Justine Oye after the first season, and continued with Sabrina Wong, Mary Botkin and Sabrina May—all of them being team captains. This season I had the opportunity to ask four to join the coaching staff. All four want to help the girls improve as players and as people.” Sander remembers Korenic as a player being eager to learn the game and expand her knowledge. He says even then she showed an aptitude for coaching. Schell spent three years tending the Ravens’ net and appeared in three provincial finals, helping the team to its first B.C. title. See Page 23

After three decades, Sander maintains love for the game From Page 22

Wong also played three seasons as a Raven and was part of two provincial championship teams while Kelly, who played goal in her final season of Midget hockey, brings a competitiveness and passion from her playing days to coaching, says Sander. Pat Korenic was a member of the Richmond Ravens’ board of directors when she convinced

Sander to join the local girls’ hockey association. The recipient of numerous coaching excellence awards, he had had a long and successful period—25 years—coaching boys’ hockey, including guiding his sons Andy and Shane to their first championships. But mainly he coached teams that his kids didn’t play on. “I didn’t want to put pressure on them and have

people saying they were there because I was coaching,” he said. “I watched them play a lot more than I coached them, so winning a championship with them was special.” One of his fondest memories in girls’ hockey was during his first season behind the Ravens’ bench when the team won an invitational tournament in San Jose. The first run to the provincial final “and

seeing the girls play their hearts out” also stands out, as does the first B.C. title. Playing a major role in Sander’s success has been his wife Sati, who joined the Ravens that first season as team trainer. He felt it was important to have a female presence, but says it has also been a lot of fun sharing his passion for coaching with her. Despite an overwhelmingly impressive win-loss

record (the Midget A Ravens have won 326 of the 445 games he’s coached), Sander maintains his love of hockey simply by watching the girls succeed through the dedication they show each season. “Sometimes it can be tough to be a girl who loves hockey,” says Schell. “You’re not always taken seriously. I’m so thankful that I’ve been

able to be a part of a team environment that provides great goals and gives girls a chance to be competitive in a maledominated sport. Female hockey is one of the fastest growing sports in the world and I think AJ

has given an invaluable contribution. He’s a great mentor on and off the ice. But the No. 1 thing I’ve taken away from playing on AJ’s team is that if you work hard and don’t give up, you will be successful. “
