PAGC Youth Hockey Cup celebrates a successful first tournament
Youth from across north-central Saskatchewan are lacing up their skates to compete in a new hockey tournament.
The Dave Steuart, East End and Buckland arenas were filled this week as the Prince Albert Grand Council’s Youth Hockey Cup kicked off in its inaugural year.
Calla Moore, from the Waterhen Lake First Nation brought her son Beaudre LaRocque to the hockey cup to represent his community. She said LaRocque also plays for the North Battleford Peewee AA Barons.
She said sport is important for youth, as it’s a source of pride, a way to travel to new places and, above all, an important learning experience.
