  • 44Th Annual Leo Boivin International Midget AA/AAA Showcase
    44th Annual Leo Boivin International Midget AA/AAA Showcase March , 2017 LEO BOIVIN This esteemed hockey showcase proudly carries the name of Prescott native, and NHL legend Leo Boivin. Leo Boivin began playing hockey at the age of seven on the St. Lawrence River and outdoor ice surfaces of Prescott, Ontario, near Ottawa. It was with the Bruins that Leo's reputation as a hard-hitting, defenseman grew. Tim Horton regarded him to be the toughest blue liner to beat in a one-on-one situation. He was nicknamed "Fireplug" for his compact stature and devastating body checks. Although there were bigger men on the blue line, especially closer the end of his career, none hit harder than Leo Boivin. After retiring, he stayed in the game as a scout. He went behind the bench as the interim coach of the St. Louis Blues during the 1975-76 and 1977-78 seasons, and coached the Ottawa 67's of the OHL for a time, but at the end of the day he preferred scouting to coaching. Leo Boivin was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1986. Nowadays, Leo can be found at the arena named after him during the tournament weekend, smiling for photos with fans and enjoying great Midget hockey. Be sure to say hello! HISTORY Now in its 44th year, this tournament has come a long way from the eight team one-day event first started in 1972 to the current 16 team tournament that welcomes the world! This tournament has set the standard, with its reputation for hospitality and excellent organization.

  • Indoor and Outdoor Ice Provision and Programming
    CENTENNIAL COMMUNITY and RECREATIONSC3.2.2 ASSOCIATION 5450 Lawrence Ave. East Scarborough, ON M1C 3B2 Deputation Item SC3.2, Scarborough Community Council, Indoor and Outdoor Ice Provision and Programming January 13, 2015 Centennial Community and Recreation Association (CCRA) is in its 65th year of representing approximately 4,000 households in the Centennial Community of Ward 44, south of Highway 401 and east of Highland Creek in Scarborough. Having reviewed the July 2014 City of Toronto Staff report Indoor and Outdoor Ice Provision and Programming, we would like to again express our concern at the unequal distribution of City maintained outdoor ice surfaces in Toronto. With one small outdoor ice surface at Scarborough Civic Centre that does not provide facilities for shinny, the City is in effect denying children, youth and adults in Scarborough access to a recreational opportunity that is routinely enjoyed in other Toronto neighbourhoods. Having access to free outdoor ice ensures that youth in Scarborough have the chance to learn and enjoy an active social winter activity in their own neighbourhoods. Without local rinks, many of our children and youth are simply not able to participate in otherwise very costly ice sports. This is especially relevant to children and youth in nearby Toronto Community Housing units and priority neighbourhoods. In Centennial and Ward 44, there would be a dependency on volunteers to build and maintain outdoor ice for pleasure and sport. This has been done in the past by our Association, however with recent weather fluctuations and the difficulty in retaining a core group of volunteers, it is not a sustainable solution for our community.
