Will there be any at Douglas
College this year?

 

by P.J. Stallard

Douglas volleyball is suf-
fering from an acute lack of
participation.

As stated succinctly by
men’s team member Tom
Goode, ‘We're at the point
right now that if we don’t
get enough people by Mon-
day the team could be
folded.’

Six participants are cur-
rently active for the men’s
team with ten considered

 

the ‘minimum amount re-
commended for Totem Con-
ference play.

While the women’s team is
in a slightly better position
than the men's team, inter-
ested women are also re:
quested to come out and
participate.

The men's team is coached
by Charles Parkinson, form-
er Canadian National Team
member.His experience will
hopefully improve on last
year's laudable fourth place
finnish in B.C.’s Totem

_ Soccer gets kicked

by P.J. Stallard

The split with Kwantlen,
non faculty coaching, and
terrible fall weather has
grounded the Douglas C.
ollege men’s soccer team,
as they have withdrawn
from Totem Conference play
for 1981. Although approxi-
mately thirteen players were
turning out for practices and
actively expressing an inter-
est, the althetic department
felt the program needed a
firmef base to carry it
through the season. 4

Althletic Director Gert
van Niekerk attributed much
of the blame to a lack of
continuity in coaching, ‘
Until we get faculty coach-
ing on a permanent basis,
we will have a problem,’’ he
stated, adding that last
‘year’s soccer coach was
anavailable for.
the current season for some
strange reason, thus render-
ing the Douglas team lead-
erless for a great deal of its
exibition, The Kwantlen-
Douglas split was also men-
tioned, as a few former
Douglas soccer fans found
themselves unable to partic-
ipate at this college because
of their official registration
at our bouncing offspring to
the south,

Another reason for the
decline of Douglas Soccer is
the rotten weather patterns
that have settled over New
Westminister in the past
few weeks. No matter what,
Douglas soccer will have to
wait until exibition games
begin.
