Most of us hate running! Some of us are capable of short distances, maybe the distance between the house and the car when we are late! But for many, the thought of the pain that running causes is enough to stop us from putting in the effort.

My husband and I took a trip to Sooke, BC and as this was our first time there we toured around the island and marvelled at God’s beautiful creation!  The majestic trees, towering mountains, the Gold Stream Salmon Run, the rich fall colours which all declared God’s Handiwork.   Scripture tells us; “The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims His handiwork. “ Psalm 19:1 ESV.  There is no beauty like that found in the world God created.

The Moose Jaw 11U AA Canucks Grey pulled off a provincial championship win this weekend in the 11U Tier 2 B provincials held at Bell Park. 

They outscored opponents 73-14 over the weekend in five games of high offence and tight defensive play. 

Friday against the Saskatoon Cardinal destroyers they win 11-1 

On Saturday against the Regina White Sox, they pulled out a 19-9 victory. Then followed that up in their second game versus the Saskatoon Timber A’s with a 12-1 victory. 

Sending them to the semifinals against the Moose Jaw Canucks Black. 

Two weekends ago, the U13A Ice girls, the reigning provincial champs who never lost a division tournament last year and only lost 2 “nothing” games by 1 point each last season, played in their locally hosted U15B tournament.  

They went 3-0 in the round robin mercying all three teams (MJ Havoc 13-5, Twin City Angels 13-1 and Delisle Diamond Dogs 21-6) to make the playoff round. In the semis, they met up with the MJ Blazers and mercy’d them 10-1. 

Moose Jaw U13 Ice B won the Hustler Classic in Saskatoon over the weekend.  

They went 3 and 0 in the round robin and came up against Prince Albert Aces in the semifinal coming out ahead 10-9 in a very tough fought battle.  

They played Muenster in the final in another tough battle and came out ahead 13-7.  

The 11U AAA Canucks have been on quite the roll since dropping their season opener to the Regina Blue Jays. Since the initial setback against the Jays the Canucks have reeled off 7 straight wins including an 18-9 triumph Tuesday night over the same Blue Jays team that beat them 3 weeks ago. After 8 games the Canucks are 7-1 in league play, good enough for 2nd place behind the undefeated Swift Current 57’s.
