The big 93.3 The Peak FM vs the Alberni Valley Times Media Challenge Hockey game goes Thursday night at 5:30 at the Multiplex. Come watch the radio guys plaster the paper people! Just don't expect anything out of me besides lots of falling down, and using the boards to stop. OK maybe I won't be THAT bad, but I haven't played out in a hockey game in a long time. Of course I'm a goalie by trade, but I'm not into strapping on the pads in any sort of competitive game when I haven't played competitively in YEARS. I don't want to tear a groin or any other body part. Sure, maybe I'll do that playing forward or defence, but the degree of danger playing in net is higher with the amount of flexibility that is required. Ah the good ole days when I was as limber as a gymnast......it's too bad I can't play as much as I would like, but 60 Bulldog games throughout the winter with 90% of them on weekends and a 6am Morning gig Monday to Friday make playing rec hockey just too much for me! It's OK, the 'Dogs give me more than enough hockey to get me by!
The Media Challenge game is all to raise awareness for the first ever "Female Hockey Festival" coming up in Port Alberni on September 19th.
