SENIOR BASKETBALL I968-69 This was a great year for Petey's team! Besides skipping practice or purposely missing laps, our practices qMonday, Wednesday and Fridayj managed to have a comical air about them. The team managed to show up Q10 - 15 minutes late that isj wearing various outfits - right blackie ? - and lan - she introduced twine shoe- laces. Sam's granny cap and lean . . . the bell of us all in her dainty Dash sneakers, - managed to add to the brightness of the court. But we mustn't forget Joanne in the blue ! However no one managed to match Petey's outfit - dressed to the T in his baggy green sweat pants - paisley lined jacket and the added flourish of an old boys' tie! lnspite of the foolishness, the team managed a series of hard-earned victories and placed in the semi- finals in our zone, but unfortunately were defeated by l point. Orchids fdandelions?j to Glow for being the highest scorer this year. But another round of applause goes to Ieanabelle the winner of our highest foul competition with Sam running a very close second. Their prize is washing Pete's car - and a little elbow grease in the wax- ing please! The team hopes Petey gets lots of use out of his mug cuz twerp was tickled pink by I, B. M, cards and Ian sure appreciated her shoe laces. To next year's team - good luck and let's be like the navy: SlNK'EM! VOLLEYBALL CSR. 8 JR., With the help of our coach, Peter Lemon, the Balmoral Hall Senior Volleyball team gained more knowledge of Volleyball skills and played more en- thusiastically throughout this year's season. Even though victories were not numerous, spirit reigned and every game was long and arduous. With the help of Brenda Craig, a Junior team was formed and although there was a lack of at- tentiveness at regular practices they managed many good rallies in their games against St. Mary's and M. B. C. I. To next year's Junior and Senior teams remem- ber - no skipping practice, sock it to 'em and let's have a victory for the green and gold! Lgmo rx BASKETBALL um QU' Coach Another addition to the sports area this year was the start of a Iunior Basketball Team. With Brenda Craig and Diana Kilgour coaching, the basic skills were learnt by the enthusiastic grade seven, eight and nines. Unfortunately they only played one game this year - next year with more conscientious practicing let's have the junior team scoring a few baskets for B, H,
