since adopted the game as part of
their regular physical education
curriculum for intermediate stu-
dents. The North Shore club pro-

the inaugural program.

The North Shore club’s junior
program has been steadily growing
since its inception five years ago.

“One reason for the North
Shore’s success is that there are
enough people within the club
with the acumen to understand
that investment in young. cricket
players is the only way to ensure
the future of cricket in B.C.,""
said Susan Nakagawa, a parent
rep with the club. **This entails

not only funding, but a dedication
to the concept of youth sport.”

Nakagawa added that the de-
velopment of young coaches is
paramount to the future of the
game in the province.

For an-example of the devel-
opment of younger couches, one
need look no further: than the duo
coaching the. North Shore club's
15-and-under team.

Wayne and Greg Hobson, twins

in their” early °20s, are both
members of provincial and na-
tional cricket teams, and pass on
their valuable experience to
younger players.

Another way the club hopes to
continue the growth of | their
junior teams is through parental
interest in the game. Jack Kyle, of
the Canadian Cricket Association,
recently held a cricket rules clinic
for parents at Norgate Park.

The club is holding a cricket
camp for beginners in July, and
registration for next. season will
take place carly in the new year.
New players of all ages and skill
levels are encouraged to join in.

camp, or to be put on an intor-
mation mailing list, call Jim Mit-
chell (986-3010), Linda Snow
