All in the Name of Fun
All in the Name of Fun

Fun was the name of the game at the Vegreville Wranglers Novice Hockey Tournament on Jan. 25 and 26.
Tournament Organizer Carlee Leliuk said things ran smoothly. It appeared as if the players, along with their family members and friends enjoyed the light hearted atmosphere surrounding the event.
At the end of every game two players from each team were awarded the Heart and Hustle Award, and the Most Valuable Player Award. After every game there was a shoot out with the winning team being treated to Boston Pizza and Tim Bits in the dressing room.
But, perhaps the biggest highlight of the weekend was the skills competition Sunday morning. The categories included: fastest skater, break away challenger, rapid fire, agility and passing accuracy. Judging by the smiles and excitement on the players faces and family warm embraces, the event was a sure fire success.
