Three local men’s teams won their respective divisions at the fun, annual 100 Mile Old Stars Hockey Tournament, Nov. 6-8.
Fourteen teams played in the men’s side at the South Cariboo Rec. Centre and six teams played in the ladies side at the Rolf Zeis Memorial Arena in Lac la Hache.
The 100 Mile Old Cats won the age 50-plus division.
100 Mile RE/MAX won the 40-plus division.
Morningwood, from 100 Mile, won the rec division.
An entertaining dinner and dance event drew about 250 people to the 100 Mile Community Hall on Nov. 7, says organizer Greg Aiken.
“The dance was awesome. The dinner was great. Red Rock Grill catered to the dinner and it was excellent. New Age Entertainment played the music and it seemed to just blend with the crowd.”
The hockey all weekend was great as well, Aiken adds.
“There was the odd little dust up in the rec division, which there usually is. But other than that, everything went smooth.”
On the women’s side, there were 80 participants on six teams, five of which from out of town. The Kamloops Dirt Bags went 3-0 and won the tourney by point differential.
The local team, Hun City Milers, also went 3-0.
Local player Lori Forster says the tourney was a lot of fun.
“The sportsmanship was fantastic.”
