Teeing Up the Week

It's kind of a dull time for local sports with the hockey season finished and the spring and summer sports about a month away. Here's a preview of a couple things coming down this week for sports in Estevan.

The Estevan Bruins will hold their spring camp Friday thru Sunday at the Civic Auditorium. Likely the last Bruins event in the old rink as the ice in Spectra Place won't be in place until July. At last check about 40 players will be attending the camp. I know there's a few Manitoba players who won't be attending since this week is Spring Break in Manitoba. But players are coming from all over the place to attend the camp. I'll provide deeper look into the camp later this week.

We could also hear about a couple of announcements about the Bruins club either this week or next. And no, it won't be the announcement of the new Head Coach and GM.

Some football news. The University of Regina Rams will be holding their tryouts this weekend and I know at least one Estevan player, Michael Bittman will be attending the camp. I'll take a further look at the issue later this week.

Saturday, Estevan Minor Football and the High School football team will hold their fundraising dinner on Saturday. Matt Dominquez, Jason Clermont and Chris Getzlaf will be the guest speakers for the evening. So I'll be looking at the later this week.

And that's a preview of what's coming up this week.
