= Grizzlies in waiting

NORTH Vancouver has
become a den for young
Grizzlies.

An idea born during a hike
has beconie a runaway success
story.

“Val Ramsey and myself
were out hiking the Baden-
Powell. Trail, and we decided
we wanted to see more basket-
ball opportunities for our kids,”
Kathy Hobbs was saying the
other day.

“For Grade 6s and 7s its
more of a priority, but not for
the younger ones,” Hobbs, a
Delbrook recreation centre
coordinator said. “And of
course with the Grizzlies
around, the kids are all keen to
play.”

From that acorn of an idea
planted on a North Vancouver
trail has sprung a mighty oak of
a league — and it’s not even a
month old yet.

A coincidental relationship
with Basketball BC President
Digby Leigh (“He’s my hus-
band’s partner”) feathered
Nicely into the women’s idea.

“We were all sitting around
the table talking and he (Leigh)
says our mandate for this vear is
to try and expand youth basket-
bail,” recalled Hobbs.

The synergy was there, and
so the groundwork for the
Delbrook Basketball League
began.

Enter — the
Grizzlies.

“Basketball BC went to see
the Grizzlies with this commu-

Vancouver

nity league concept, and they
decided to kick in some money
to Basketball BC.” she said.
“And they wanted the league to
be called the Junior Grizzlies
League”. The NBA league
affice in New York gave its
blessing and a logo was com-
missioned.

The 24-team league for
Grade 4 to 9 boys and giels is
dedicated to participation first,
winning second.

The filled-to-capacity league
—— 247 kids strong — is the first
of what is hoped will be many
Junior Grizzlies Leagues
throughout B.C.
