The U15 AA Annugas Weyburn Wings took to the ice for their first game of the season Wednesday night, an exhibition matchup against the Estevan Bruins.  

Neither team would get things going offensively until the second period, when the Bruins would open things up. Ethan Phillips would score a hat trick for the visitors, while Lucas Desaultes would score two goals and add an assist as Estevan took home a 6-1 victory. Kade Taylor scored a goal for the visitors as well.  

Week 3 of High school football starts Thursday night around the region. Locally, there are three games on tonight in Kerrobert, Biggar, and Unity, before an under the light's finale in Kindersley on Friday puts an end to another week of local high school football.

The Estevan Bruins are set to kick off their Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League season with a weekend doubleheader against the Melville Millionaires. The team will open on the road Friday in Melville before returning to Affinity Place on Saturday for their home opener.

TS&M Woodlawn Golf Club is preparing to close out what General Manager and Head Professional Amanda Minchin says was one of their strongest years in recent memory. The official last day of the season is set for October 19, the Sunday after Thanksgiving, if the weather holds.

The Swift Current Stock Car Association is gearing up for the last official weekend of races, featuring a full lineup of cars; the modifieds, minis, streets, and hobby stocks.

The races will be hosted at the Swift Current Motor Speedway this weekend with annual kids' day festivities and more.

Vice president for the Swift Current Stock Car Association, Terry Fehr, shared that races will begin at 8:00 p.m. on Friday and at 6:00 p.m. on Saturday.

For Andrea Raab, the countdown is on.

The 17-year-old is in the final stages of training as she prepares to represent Canada at the World Taekwon-do Championship in Croatia this October—a dream she’s been chasing for as long as she can remember.

“It’s going well. I’m trying to balance rest days with the training I need, and it can be a struggle sometimes,” says Raab. “But I’ve got to keep pushing through—it’s coming up soon, and I’m really looking forward to it.”

It's an exciting time at Deloraine School, and co-head of the physed department, Jay Sunaert, is very excited about where the programs are going.

Building buzz

Things are looking great for the athletic programs in Carman, and Athletic Director at the Collegiate, James Ballantyne, couldn't be more excited about it all.
