Want to play in Blind River?
There is still time to register for the upcoming mini tryout camp that is being hosted by the Blind River Beavers.
Under the watch of new head coach Kyle Brick, the Beavers of the Northern Ontario Jr. Hockey League have scheduled a one-day mini camp for Saturday, June 11 at Countryside Arena in Sudbury. There will be two sessions — one from 9:15-11:15 a.m. and the other from 2:15-4:15 p.m.
Cost for the camp is $100 per player. Players can register via blindriverbeavers.com.
For more information, call Coach Brick at 705-987-3304 or e-mail him via kyle_brick@hotmail.com.
The 30-year old Brick takes over a Blind River team that missed the playoffs in 2014-2015 and finished 11th overall in the 12-team NOJHL.
Brick, who was an assistant coach the past two seasons for the two-time NOJHL champion Soo Thunderbirds, will head to Blind River with Dylan King as his hand-picked assistant.
The 25-year old King played three Ontario Hockey League seasons as a rugged defenseman with the Soo Greyhounds.
Both Brick and King hail from the nearby town of Thessalon, which is located between Sault Ste. Marie and Blind River along Highway 17.
