By Lanny Stewart, Westman Journal Reflecting on his younger years, Vern May recalls a decision he had to make while in high school. The yearbook editor wanted to know what May wanted to do with his life. “I knew that just saying I wanted to be a professional wrestler wasn’t going to be palatable for my parents,” he said. At that time, it was what the Souris product wanted to do. It was his dream to perform in a wrestling ring in front of screaming fans. Now at the age of 38 years old, May is no longer performing pile drivers, DDTs and other wrestling maneuvers. How he got his start in wrestling is something he remembers quite vividly. “When I was 16 years old, I was working for the community newspaper here in Souris and mostly it was because a friend of mine had said that if you work for the media, you get a press card, so you get free passes to everything,” he explained. May used the press card to his advantage one night and was able to secure a backstage interview with Canadian wrestling icon Bret Hart in Winnipeg. Little did May know that night, that years later, he booked Hart to headline a wrestling event he was helping promote. “My career really launched with this interview with Bret and then a year later, I was wrestling and then it [career] ended with Bret working for me.

That was one of those experiences that you think, ‘geez, how did this happen?’” May’s love for wrestling grew after that interview and soon afterwards, an independent wrestling card came to Souris. May and a friend of his helped set up the ring prior to the event and that night, May was introduced to the promoter of the wrestling tour. Approximately a year later, May contacted the

promoter and ended up getting connected with a trainer who helped him prepare for the rigors of wrestling professionally. “He had this quonset out in the backyard and there was a wrestling ring in it,” May explained. “It was like right out of Rocky 4. You don’t picture that this is going to be there. It just looks like someone’s garage in their yard and then when you go in, there’s this full-sized wres-

tling ring.” May, along with a few others from the Souris area, trained for approximately eight weeks, learning the ins and outs of what it takes to become a wrestler. “Then they pretty much just threw us to the wolves and said, ‘OK, you know enough’,” he explained. May wrestled out of Winnipeg in his early days and eventually caught on

with a wrestling tour in the Maritimes. For the next four years, May was focused on “chasing wrestling pay cheques,” he says. He worked in small venues as part of independent wrestling tours and had difficulty scraping by financially. “It’s a tough road to make a living, that’s for sure. When you start out, it’s horrible. I remember the first six months that I continued on page 2

Vern May continued from page 1 wrestled, back in 1993, I wasn’t getting paid. They just said, ‘Well, it’s part of paying your dues.’” May remembers his first pay day in the industry like it was yesterday. “The promoter dropped four loonies in my hand and said thanks for coming out. “I thought geez, six months and four bucks? I don’t think I’m going to be in this for very long,” he added. It wasn’t until after several years of working in the industry that May - after making a name for

himself as ‘Vance Nevada’ in the wrestling ring - was able to generate an adequate income. For several years during his time as a wrestler, May had to work other jobs in order to pay the bills. “One challenge in independent wrestling is that we don’t have contracts,” he said. “If you’re on contract and you get hurt, well, then you go home and you still are getting paid. But not at this level.” May spoke about a night in Edmonton where he wound up breaking a rib in the ring. He was notified by a doctor soon afterwards that he had to take

four weeks off. “I was scheduled to fly out that Monday morning for a six night tour in Newfoundland. You’ve already advertised and the promoter has already paid for your flight. So if you don’t show, you’re cutting your own throat for future business. “You find ways to work around it,” he added. He says life got a bit easier financially, reaching a point where he was making money off of appearances, travel fees and concessions. Eventually, he was negotiating salary on a perweek basis, he says. May wrestled for 20 years, spending time in Brandon, Winnipeg, Vancouver and Alberta. During his time in the ring, he’s gone toe-to-toe with former WWE superstars Honky Tonk Man, Jim Neidhart, Gangrel, Brutus Beefcake, Tito Santana and Tatanka to name a few. In 2004, May received his one and only stint in the WWE - however it didn’t last long. “I was booked as an extra basically,” May said looking back. “You get called up, so you might get a match, you might not. They might have you backstage during some kind of skit. But that’s as close as I ever got.” Despite never really getting his chance to perform under the bright lights of WWE, May says he was able to form relationships with some of the biggest stars in the business and it’s something he’ll take with him for the rest of his life. “There were a lot of

Friday, February 6, 2015 guys that I had a chance to wrestle and that’s exciting in terms of your record book when you look back and say I wrestled all of these guys that people know about,” he said with a smile. In 2011, May spent three weeks with Roddy Piper doing a reality TV documentary series out of Calgary called, “World of Hurt.” The premise of the show was about wrestlers aspiring to reach the top levels of wrestling. The wrestlers took part in an advanced training camp with guidance from Piper. “It’s really funny because Piper is a true performer in all senses of the word. When the cameras were on, you knew that everything he said was for the benefit of the cameras. When the cameras were off, then you got a real good glimpse of who Rod was,” May said. “There was a lot of things that Rod did for me through the process of that show, just with the way that he spoke to me and spoke about me when he

was on camera that made it impossible for the TV producers to make me look like an idiot,” he said with a laugh. “He didn’t do that for everybody.” May’s wrestling career came to a close in September 2012 after a match in Red Deer, Alta. He wound up injuring his neck after being dropped on his head. “At that time, I had some lingering trouble with my neck, but when that match ended, I felt really fuzzy,” he noted. “The next morning I woke up and my head just fell like an eggshell. I couldn’t figure out what was different.” An MRI months later confirmed that it was indeed a severe neck injury. Doctors informed him that he could continue to wrestle, but that it was only a matter of time before he ended up in a wheelchair. “I felt, well, I have a young boy at home and a wife that needs me. The decision was pretty easy for me from that point.” After briefly staying in the industry working in

other areas – whether it was ring announcer, promoter, trainer, etc. - May opted to quit the business for good soon afterwards. He would eventually receive a lifetime achievement award from the Edmonton Combative Sports Commission and has since been honoured for his work as a promoter and author. He wrote a book in 2009 entitled, “Wrestling in the Canadian West.” He moved back to his hometown in 2013 and is enjoying life away from the ‘squared circle’. Married for 17 years, May is no longer jumping off the top rope. The father of two is working as an economic development officer in his hometown. He also has returned to the Souris community newspaper he once worked at as a columnist. “I’ve always had an interest in writing, so go back to 1993 and my career goal was to either be a professional wrestler or a writer. I’ve been fortunate to be able to do both,” he concluded.

A winter vacation close to home By Kelly Running Often winter vacations mean travelling to the mountains for a ski trip or heading south to find a warm beach, but a perfect spot for winter holidays can be found right in our own backyard. The Moose Mountain Provincial Park, located at Kenosee Lake in Saskatchewan, offers winter fun whether interested in a day trip, a weekend getaway, or a week of entertaining winter activities. They offer numerous winter activities that can be enjoyed by the whole family and is a more accessible trip to many than heading somewhere hot or out to the mountains. Bring your snowmobiles to enjoy over 120 km of immaculately groomed trails, which link up into the larger Moose Mountain Snowmobile Club’s trails. Along the routes warm up shelters can be found, stop for dinner and use the wood burning stove or make a stop at one of the restaurants or bars at Kenosee Lake. Additionally

there are 50km of crosscountry ski trails, which are well kept for both classic cross-country skiing and skate skiing. Warm up shacks can be found along these routes as well. Those found on both the ski trails and the snowmobile trails are stocked with wood, have wood burning stoves, and are maintained. Morgan Wasylyk, a resident of the park who recently moved to the area from Porcupine Plain, explained, “There’s a variety of beautiful groomed trails for hiking, snowshoeing, and cross country skiing. Personally I have never seen such maintained ski trail. There’s even warm up shelters to stop in at and I can’t wait to pack a lunch sometime and take advantage of the wood stove.” Keeping with the theme of being active outdoors Moose Mountain Provincial Park includes 10 km of snowshoe trails winding through the birch and aspen forest. These trails can be combined in any number of ways to enjoy a short jaunt or longer day

trip through the beautiful, scenic routes. Kenosee Inn has partnered with Kenosee Lake Lions Club and Sask Parks to offer snowshoe and ski rentals. All funds raised through these rentals go to the Kenosee Lake Lions Club. The Inn also provides year-round accommodation and boasts a

delicious menu. The Inn is unique as it not only has rooms available within the hotel, but also offer cabins with a full kitchen and bath. They all have decks, a fire pit with wood supplied, gas BBQ, and a picnic table. Contact the Inn to also learn more about their access to condominiums in the Village of Kenosee to

PAC now for a more comfortable retirement Every year around this time, you scramble to find ‘extra’ money to make your contribution to investments held in your Registered Retirement Savings Program (RRSP). And, while maxing your contribution each year is the right path to maxing your savings held in your RRSP for retirement, finding that ‘extra’ money by the RRSP contribution deadline can be stressful. But stress not next year – there is a much better way: a Pre-Authorized Contribution (PAC) program. PAC-ing for a more comfortable retirement is simple: just set up a regular payment plan – usually an automatic withdrawal from your bank account -- in an amount you can afford. Your investment starts growing right away, meaning it will likely enjoy more growth than if you wait until the end of the year. Plus, you may

benefit from the magic of compounding returns which can produce a larger nest egg than contributing a lump-sum at the RRSP deadline. A regular PAC becomes part of your budget as a monthly cash outflow that you probably won’t miss and when markets decline, automatic contributions allow you to purchase more mutual fund shares or units, resulting in a lower average cost over the long term. Here’s an example of the power of PAC-ing: • Set up a regular investment plan – say, $250 into your RRSP-eligible investments on the first of every month. • At a compound annual return of 6.5%, you’ll have $278,000 of pre-tax assets after 30 years.* • If you wait until the end of each year and invest a lump sum of $3,000 into your RRSP eligible investments (presuming you can

up with that large chunk of cash on short notice) you’ll have only $259,100 of pretax assets after 30 years. • By PAC-ing each month, you could potentially add $18,900 to your retirement fund – and it doesn’t cost you an extra penny! • In addition to the extra long-term tax-deferred appreciation, your contributions also deliver a nice tax benefit for the current tax year. PAC-ing removes RRSP deadline stress and enhances your retirement income. Talk to your professional advisor about PAC-ing and other sound investment strategies or achieving all your life goals. *The rate of return is used only to illustrate the effects of the compound growth rate and is not intended to reflect future values or returns on investment.

Planning for another Growing Season by Brenda Stefanson PAg Regional Farm Business Management Specialist Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture, Watrous As you make annual cropping decisions on your farm, you are confronted with volatility in commodity prices and farm input expenses. A key piece of knowledge in your cropping decision is your cost of production. By calculating and understanding your farm’s cost of production, you will be able to make more effective management decisions regarding: the most profitable crops for your farm, the cost effectiveness of farm inputs and whether to purchase or lease additional farm land. Knowing the cost of production will help you determine the break-even yields and prices on your farm. This information will help you set price targets for your marketing plan. It is important to remember that the cost of production on your farm will not be the same as on your neighbour’s farm. Include both variable and fixed costs in your calculations. Variable costs, for example the cost of seed, fertilizer, chemical, and crop insurance premiums, are costs that change according to what you are producing. Fixed costs tend to remain the same regardless of your cropping mix. Fixed costs include things like the phone bill, accounting

costs, depreciation and property taxes. Having a good understanding of your cost of production will help you to improve the overall profitability of the farm, identify which enterprises or products are the most profitable, and develop an effective marketing plan. Each year, the Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture publishes a ‘Crop Planning Guide’ to assist farmers in estimating their cost of production for the various crops. The guide contains an estimate of variable and fixed expenses for an average sized farm in each of the soil zones. The general assumptions are stated at the front of the guide and the crop prices used are farm gate price estimates based on the information available in December of the previous year. Prices become outdated quickly, so producers should continually adjust these figures as changes impact the markets. It is important to remember that the figures used are estimates based on recommended production practices for that soil zone and are meant to be used as a guide. To make the best use of the Crop Planning Guide, do your calculations on the worksheet supplied in the publication or use the downloadable spreadsheet available on the website. Entering your own costs, yields and price

estimates will give you a more accurate calculation of the cost of production on your farm. Updating the calculations as more information is available will help you determine your target price for your marketing plan. In addition to the published crop planning guides, a number of on-line calculators are available on the Ministry of Agriculture website. These planners are Microsoft Excel spreadsheets and may be useful in making farm management decisions. To find these calculators go to www.agriculture.gov.sk.ca and click on ‘On-line calculators’. The calculators cover a wide range of topics including: • Farm Machinery Custom Rental Rate Guide Calculator • Forage and Crop Nutrient Calculator • Bale Grazing Calculator • Hay Share Calculator • Feed Value Calculator Knowing your breakeven yields and prices won’t guarantee a farm profit but it does keep you on target when used in decision making and can greatly improve your chance of success.

BELIEVE IT?

How do Canadians know if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s true (or not)? They turn to the trusted source: Newspapers in print, online, tablet and phone. And, research finds that they trust the ads there too â&#x20AC;&#x201C; more than those in any other medium. Be where Canadians look.

Ski bus longest running extra curricular

by Judy Wells Living in a border town has its advantages. One of the biggest for Deloraine School students is the near proximity to Bottineau Winter Park (BWP) and its ski hills in North Dakota in the scenic Turtle Mountains. The Deloraine Ski Club was formed in the late 1970s. It is the longest running and successful extra curricular activity in school history. Chantal Mills currently coordinates the Ski Club with assistance from Herb Horner and Bev Goethals as weekly chaperones. Traditionally, Thursday is Canada Day at BWP - meaning money is at par. Through the years, this plays a significant role as the currency exchange fluctuates. Herb Horner taught at Deloraine School for many years and is now retired. He has been involved with the Ski Club

from the start and feels fortunate to still be a part of things. He says BWP personnel have told him “On Thursdays, Canadians keep that place (BWP) rocking.” “They are very grateful for our patronage, but at the same time they are very good to us as well,” said Horner. On the way to BWP the ski bus picks up Waskada School students at Goodlands. There has been as many as 38 on the ski bus and the average would be somewhere between 2535. “Once kids turn 16 and get their licenses, the numbers on the bus go down because they like to take their own vehicles. The bus is a real community activity - not only do we invite Waskada School to join us - we often meet up with the Boissevain Ski Club as well. The philosophy is the Ski Club and BWP are enhance-

ments to our community,” added Horner. In the past few years a brand new state-of-theart chalet has been added at BWP. It was built by the “New York Says Thank You Foundation” in honour of Annie Nelson who was the sole North Dakotan killed at the World Trade Centre on 9-11. The new facility allows access for the physically challenged and wounded warriors as well. There is a magic carpet which goes up from the bottom and skiing assistants if required. Deloraine School welcomes Grade 4 - 12 students to take part in the Ski Club and Waskada School allows Grade 9 - 12 students to participate. There is a $5 minimal fee for the bus ride and students pay their own lift tickets. All students must carry their own insurance. As for the border crossing, Horner says it was a piece of cake crossing the border prior to 9-11. “Since that time, every person must go through one at a time.” This is usually just a minor delay and a part of the new security measures taken in recent years. The students are so excited about skiing, a little stop at the border is barely noticed. “We have so much fun. We are laughing all

the time - on the bus, on the hills, at the chalet and back home again. Joining up with the other schools has been so beneficial and forged many friendships. And not only with Canadian kids - the kids naturally meet lots of Americans as well.” To wrap up the skiing season, the Ski Club takes a trip to Asessippi Park (near Russell, MB) for a day of fun! What about injuries? In the span of about 40 years there have been minimal injuries. Horner recalled a sprained ankle and a broken arm, however, the latter happened at Asessip-

pi at the year-end wrap up. Mrs. Mills says there have been two broken arms and some other minor injuries in the last six years. That’s not bad odds at all for that many years. Helmets are mandatory for Deloraine Ski Club members, although it is not a rule enforced by BWP. The Ski Club has been fortunate to have dedicated bus drivers through the years. Inevitably the bus driver becomes an integral part of the club. Horner gives credit to the current teachers who continue to organize the Ski Club and make it possible.

There have been many great times but Horner cites one in particular. Last year there was one night, they were skiing away, having a good time when one of the BWP personnel came to tell them there was to be a ‘Trooping of the Colours’. “When it came time for the Canadian anthem, our kids sang out loud and strong - it was just so amazing, gave me goose bumps, I was so proud of those kids. We’ve had so many good times. It is always a positive experience and skiing is a sport you can take to your grave,” concluded Horner.

Valentine’s Day Fun Facts! • More than 36 million heart-shaped boxes of chocolate are sold for Valentine’s Day each year. • On average, men shell out $130 each on candy, cards, jewelry, flowers and dates. That’s more than double what women commit to spending. • About 8 billion candy hearts will be produced this year; that’s enough candy to stretch from Rome, Italy to Valentine, Arizona 20 times and back again. • About 1 billion Valentine’s Day cards are exchanged in US each year. That’s the largest seasonal card-sending occasion of the year, next to Christmas. • Worldwide, over 50 million roses are given for Valentine’s Day each year. • Women purchase 85% of all valentines. • In order of popularity, Valentine’s Day cards are given to teachers, children, mothers, wives, sweethearts and pets. • 73% of people who buy flowers for Valentine’s Day are men, while only 27 percent are women. • Men buy most of the millions of boxes of candy and bouquets of flowers given on Valentine’s Day. • In the Middle Ages, young men and women drew names from a bowl to see who their valentines would be. They would wear these names on their sleeves for one week. To wear your heart on your sleeve now means that it is easy for other people to know how you are feeling. • The Italian city of Verona, where Shakespeare’s lovers Romeo and Juliet lived, receives about 1,000 letters addressed to Juliet every Valentine’s Day. • Richard Cadbury invented the first Valentines Day candy box in the late 1800s. • Alexander Graham Bell applied for his patent on the telephone, an “Improvement in Telegraphy”, on Valentine’s Day, 1876. • The oldest surviving love poem till date is written in a clay tablet from the times of the Sumerians around 3500 BC. • In Medieval times, girls ate unusual foods on St Valentine’s Day to make them dream of their future husband.

Wild boar study in Moose Mountains expected to help map their population in Saskatchewan By Kelly Running In Saskatchewan wild boar were introduced for agricultural diversification, but as the animals escaped it was soon realized that introducing them into the area was not a good idea. Originally it was thought that any that escaped would succumb to the elements, our harsh winters would be their demise, but one of their natural habitats includes the cold temperatures of Russia and the animals actually began to thrive. Wild boars are now only recently being studied for a University of Saskatchewan project led by Dr. Ryan Brook, while the wild feral pigs had spurred a local eradication committee over a decade ago. Local effects of wild boar and efforts to eradicate them Local rancher and

member of the Moose Mountain Wild Boar Eradication Committee, Bob Brickley, explained, “The situation started about 14 years ago when the first wild boar were introduced into this area. The boars would do crop damage and terrorize domestic livestock, so local producers started to deal with it independently like most other problems they have, but it became evident we needed an organized effort to eradicate them.” As a rancher, Brickley, said, “Our biggest challenge has been our animals. We had a quarter section of swaths for grazing… wild boar foraged the crop and they’re not like elk, deer, or moose, they root it up and work across the field unless you do something about it. There’s no salvaging it; the cattle won’t graze there because of the urine and

manure. Everything avoids them.” “It was apparent there was agricultural damage, but the wild boars were cleaning nests out of birds, ducks and song birds too, so it’s something that needs to be taken seriously.” With help from the Wawota Wildlife Federation the eradication committee was created. Since they began the program they came to a point, three different times, where they thought the Moose Mountains were cleared of the wild boar, but it has not lasted. Wild boars are particularly resilient animals with no natural predators in Canada. “They’re incredibly intelligent and have a great ability to survive, as long as they have some organic matter they will survive, and survive well. Their nutrition is unlimited right now and with their ability to repopulate so easily with no natural predators here it’s very concerning.” A project to map wild boar develops The seriousness of this is what attracted the interest from the University of Saskatchewan’s Ryan Brook, an Assistant Professor with the College of Agriculture and Bioresources.

“Their population growth rate is exponential,” he explained, stating that in 10 to 15 years there could potentially be more wild boars in Saskatchewan than people. “In the United States, there are approximately five million wild boars, and they cause approximately $1.5 billion in damage annually. We have to take this matter very seriously. Do we really want wild boars to cause billions of dollars in damage in Saskatchewan?” In total wild boars have been sighted in 111 Rural Municipalities (R.M.’s) of the 296 in Saskatchewan over the past three years. “We surveyed the R.M.’s in Saskatchewan and we’re seeing in all corners of the southern half of the province that almost half of all R.M.’s have seen some feral pigs in the last few years,” Brook stated. “We don’t have an estimate number in Saskatchewan because they’re primarily nocturnal, hide in cover, and are widely distributed. They can reproduce very quickly, so the only clear picture we really have is that they are widespread across Saskatchewan.” Brook’s research team will be tagging wild boar with tracking collars in order to gather information regarding migration, survival rates, and reproduction rates. They will also use information from people like Brickley who has seen evidence of wild boar on his property. Though the project has developed since 2010 it has remained a small scale operation until this year. “I was ready to give up last year, there wasn’t and still isn’t much interest from government or other groups, but I was asked to attend an international wild boar conference in

the United States. The U.S. spends millions of dollars to try to control this issue and they designated some funding for international collaborations.” This funding will allow Brook to conduct his research. This information will then be compiled into a comprehensive map which will detail the ecology of the wild boar in Saskatchewan allowing a more holistic understanding of the invasive species. Establishing the project in the Moose Mountains Master’s student, Ryan Powers, will be based out of the Moose Mountain Provincial Park to help conduct the study. “We’re going to be catching feral wild boar and installing GPS satellite collars on them to learn more about their habitat selection, their movement patterns, dispersal patterns, and their home range size or their ecology overall,” Powers stated. Trapping currently will involve corral traps, with a backup plan of a helicopter capture crew if needed. Once the animals are caught, they will be sedated, and telemetry collars will be fitted to each animal; the collar has a battery and connection to a satellite network as well as a backup radio telemetry unit. These collars will transmit data every few hours through a satellite network to those interpreting the data. The study in Saskatchewan will also help those in the northern states infer information as well regarding the feral pigs’ migration patterns. The project is expected to last until they acquire approximately a year’s worth of data from each collared animal, which will range between 20 and 40 animals from 10 to 20 different locations across southeast-

ern Saskatchewan and Southwestern Manitoba. “At this point we’re working out the logistics of the equipment and surveying areas, looking for signs of wild boar presence,” Powers explained. “We’re ready to transition into trapping and collaring soon as the food sources for feral swine are limited currently these first three months of the year; so, we’re going to try and entice them and are hoping for better success now rather than later in the year when more food is available.” If you’ve seen wild boar or have had significant crop damage done to your agricultural land contact the researchers through Facebook at “Wild Hog Watch,” where updates can also be found. The importance of the study Brook added that this is a very serious issue, which he hopes his data will relay the gravity of the issue to the provincial government regarding the invasive species: “Looking at the habitat in southern Saskatchewan, there is a lot of habitat for them, and we could easily have as many feral swine in the province as people in the next 10 to 15 years.” Between their ability to eat nearly anything allowing them to survive in a wide array of habitats, the possibility of them transmitting disease, the damage they do to crops and their innate ability to terrorize livestock, wild boar are consider a threat by Brook. “Once we create an occupancy model and apply it across the province we hope to be able to estimate how many are in Saskatchewan because a control program can’t be effective if there is no way to map its success,” Brook stated.

Left: Wild boars are caught on a trail camera by Dr. Brook last year. The areas he has been monitoring with cameras will now see efforts to capture and place a telemetry collar on them to track the invasive species. (Submitted)

Manor wrestler named Youth Athlete of the Year finalist By Terri Eger Talking with the polite, soft spoken, young lady itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to link her to the wrestler who just pinned her opponent to the mat in a matter of seconds to claim another gold medal. Tianna Kennett makes out powering and out maneuvering other wrestlers look easy in a sport that is anything but. The 17-year-old, Grade 12 student has travelled across the country and around the world thanks to the unconventional sport sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grown to love, but it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always that way. When teacher Monte McNaughton came to the rural school of Manor, SK he brought his passion for wrestling with him. The Manor Mustangs wrestling team soon grew in popularity and attracted the attention of Tiannaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s younger sister, Trista. At first Tianna wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t interested in the non-traditional sport and shrugged off encouragement from her sister to join the team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t join to start with but when I went to watch Trista wrestle I thought, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;This isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t as dumb as I thoughtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;,â&#x20AC;? she said with a laugh. Since initially joining the team in Grade 9, there havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been many opponents who can stand in her way. Tianna may only be 5â&#x20AC;&#x2122;2â&#x20AC;? tall but sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a powerhouse few competitors want to mess with. Her skill and drive as a wrestler have earned her countless accolades and the opportunity to travel to Germany, Austria, Brazil and China representing her country on the international stage. Tianna is a two time

High School Provincial Champion and two time National Bronze Medalist. She won gold to make the 2014 52kg Cadet National Team, placed second at the Pan Am Games in Brazil, won the Austrian Open Tournament, won first in the Canada Cup International Tournament and finished 6th in the Youth Olympics in China. Most recently she has been named the 2014 Youth Female Athlete of the Year by Sask Sport Inc., an honour just unveiled at the end of January this year. Not bad for an athlete who describes herself as â&#x20AC;&#x153;not very coordinated.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m 5â&#x20AC;&#x2122;2â&#x20AC;?, I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make the volleyball team and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really not coordinated with a hockey stick or at bouncing a ball, but with wrestling Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m in total control,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about balancing your own body.â&#x20AC;? While a spectator would think the young athlete is under a lot of pressure, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something she thrives under. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not as much pressure when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an individual sport,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to worry about letting my team down. In wrestling itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just me.â&#x20AC;? In a crowded gym with noise and excitement coming from several mats where competitions are ongoing, it would be hard for most people to focus on the task at hand but Tianna has found a system that works for her. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You learn what you need before you go into the ring. Some people need to be serious, others get hyped up. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a game plan and when the whistle blows I just go by feel,â&#x20AC;? she said. Thru her experience sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s learned to

keep a calm head and focus on what sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing, listen to her coaches and learn from her mistakes as she grows in the sport. Tiannaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success has not come without effort. During the regular season she trains two hours a day, six days a week. Leading up to major competitions, that schedule is increased to three or four hours a day, six days a week. She spends a lot of time cross training, strengthening and conditioning and doing yoga outside of her time training on the mat. Tianna has a lot of coaches in her corner who have helped get her to where she is today. In addition to her high school coach, Monte McNaughton, she works with coaches from the University of Regina a couple of times a month during the regular season or once a week prior to major competitions. Three time Olympic medalist Tonya Verbeek has also worked with Tianna as part of her European Tour and the Cadet National Team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To have an Olympic coach in my corner is something huge,â&#x20AC;? said Tianna. Adding to quality coaches, Tianna has a big family supporting her as well. Her parents, Brian and Lorna Kennett, together with their other children and extended family, can be heard cheering from the side lines whenever Tianna is in the ring. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Family is very important to me and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m thankful for the support theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve given me.â&#x20AC;? Wrestling has provided numerous travel opportunities to the teen who has enjoyed travelling continued on page 14

Tianna Kennett continued from page 13 within Canada and places abroad. “The international experience is totally different,” she said. “Everyone has a different angle on things and there is so much to learn.” Tianna has attracted the attention of several universities and is currently being scouted by schools in Regina, Saskatoon, Calgary and Brock University in St. Catharines, Ontario. As she finishes her Grade 12 year she plans to attend university to work toward a career in psychiatric nursing. “Mental health is one of my biggest interests,” she said. “I’m really interested in how people think.” When she’s not wrestling, Tianna works at the Redvers Activity Centre where she cares for adults with cognitive disabilities. “I really like where I work.

The people there are really fun to hang out with and it reassures me that it’s what I want to do.” However, her wrestling career is just beginning. With the peak age of a wrestler at 28 and the average age of the Olympic team being closer to 30, Tianna has a number of years on the mat ahead of her. “University is just the start,” she said. “I’ll see where I stand at the end of four years and see if this is something I still want to do.” As she excels in her sport and heads to bigger matches, the competitive nature of the athlete kicks in. “My ultimate goal is definitely the Olympics. The higher level you go the more you want to work and that’s a big motivator. I’m hungry for more. I think of all the opportunities I’ve had in one year and it’s just a start,” she said. “I’m not done yet.”
