  • Calgary’s first Deb Rep team made a great showing in all aspects throughout the season. They travelled to Winnipeg in February and although they were defeated they made a respectable showing in all games. They lost to the 1982 National Champions (Kilcona) by a margin of three goals.
  • The next tournament they attended was the Provincials in Calgary. They played a best of three series against Sherwood Park and faired well. The first game ended in a 7-7 tie, followed by a 6-5 loss. The third and final game ended in an 8-8 tie, therefore the series being awarded to Sherwood Park.
  • They then travelled to the Sherwood Park Select A Team tournament where they encountered an identical series losing again by only one goal. Five Belle players joined the team for this event. They were Kim Cram, Michele Travis, Jackie Willis, Laurie Moore and Laurie Smith

  • The Belle Rep team completed a very successful season, commencing with a four day trip to Aldergrove in January. Here they participated in a Deb level tournament. Opposition included Sherwood Park, B.C. Selects, and Winnipeg. The Calgary team faired very well with all games being close.
  • At the next event, the Provincials, they produced the finest performance of any Calgary team in the past. After gaining a birth in the finals, Calgary put on a superb show and suffered a disappointing 9-6 loss to Sherwood Park.
