The barn was full. The boys were back in town. The Falcon Cup was all filled up for the champs to win the drink. Oh, the good ‘ol hockey game. The Nakusp arena hosted the 3rd annual Falcons Cup on December
20-21. Organized by local champion Mark Macaulay along with an army of volunteers, the hockey tournament played host to an exclusive mix of Nakusp Minor hockey alumni and local players who maintain an address in the greater Nakusp area. The event also acts as a fundraising vehicle with the goal of supporting the continued success of minor hockey in Nakusp.
NAKUSP’s
At the registration deadline, 80 hockey players were signed up and ready to strap on the pads. Friday night hosted five pairs of goalies and captains who conducted a private draft in the depths of the Three Lions and sorted the motley crew into teams, a tradition that adds the edge of NHL chimera to the event. Later that night, the draft results were posted and the
long awaited team names were announced: Jamie Coates and Mark Macaulay — Team Red. Riley Weatherhead and Gord Marshall — Team Grey. Chad Hicks and Brodie Yano — Team Black. Tristin Sinclair and Ryan Struck — Team White. Dallas Sinclair and Taylor Reitmeier — Team Green.
