The Humboldt Broncos have announced the commitment of 2007-born forward Gabriel Kaminski for the upcoming 2025-26 season. 

This season, the Langley, BC product has picked up 20 points (7G-13A) in 28 games with the North Shore Warriors U18 Prep program. Kaminski has also suited up for the Grandview Steelers of the Pacific Junior Hockey League (BC Jr. B) and scored a goal there as well.  

In the first day of action in the MJHL-SJHL Showcase in Winnipeg, the Saskatchewan side got the upper hand over their Manitoba counterparts taking two of the three games. 

In the first matchup, Team SJHL Gold defeated Team MJHL Red 5-2. The Weyburn Red Wings played a huge role in the victory, Jerome Maharaj, Jaxson Ruthven, and Ethan Dekay combined for six points and goaltender Angelo Zol made 27 saves.  

Glenn Hall Park could soon be shining bright at night-time for its sporting events. 

A local group led by the Humboldt Collegiate Institute (HCI) Mohawks football team has begun exploring the possibility of adding lights to Glenn Hall Park.  

Some of the best players in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League (SJHL) and the Manitoba Junior Hockey League (MJHL) will face off over the next couple of days in the MJHL-SJHL Showcase in Winnipeg. 

Players from their respective leagues were split into three teams, one U18 team, and two U20 squads.  

Work is being done to help establish a local 2SLGBTQIA+ Pride committee in the Watrous and Manitou Beach area.  

Dustin Hallborg is leading the initiative and said after helping as Treasurer for the Saskatchewan Pride Network he felt inspired to start a local chapter in the Watrous and Manitou Beach area. 

“I’m happy to see what they do and I’m looking to get a bit more activity out here.” 

An old book could become a new treasure for someone else.  

Homebase Humboldt is currently accepting donations of new or gently used books to aid in their development of a book corner for their youth drop-in centre. 

Youth Mental Health and Addictions Counselor Katrina Hodgson says they want to provide an assortment of activities at the youth drop-in centre that provide a space that is safe, cozy and engaging for the youth. 

On the strength of the Humboldt Broncos notching a pair of wins last week, Oakley McIlwain has been named the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League’s (SJHL) SuperU Defenceman of the Week.  

Last week, McIlwain registered five points (1G-4A) in the Broncos victories over the Nipawin Hawks and the Notre Dame Hounds. In the Broncos road victory in Nipawin, McIlwain had three points (1G-2A).
