Rebels in first place Clearwater Peewee Rebel #10 Devin Green takes the puck away from a 100 Mile House player during one of two games at the Sportsplex on Saturday. The Rebels won both of their games against the 100 Mile 1 team (100 Mile has two teams in the league). Score for the first game was 20-3 and for the second was 16-2. The local team is first in its league and unbeaten in league play so far this season. A few weeks ago, the Rebels took second place in a tournament in Lumby. Next Saturday the team travels to 100 Mile to play the 100 Mile 1 team, then will have a few weeks off. The Rebels have 10 games still left in the season to play in the new year.
