The Hill team was having just as much trouble getting hits as they could manage only three. Paul Harrietha had two with Matt Thompson contributing the other. RICHMOND HILL â€"â€" Everything’s set and ready to go for girl’s house league hockey here this season, except for one rather important problem. Girls. Right now there’s just not enough of them to stock one team, well maybe one, let alone a hoped for three or four. Beating the drum for more girls is Brenda Reid who has played hockey for Maple and Richmond Hill for the past six years and thinks it‘s a great sport. Popular Brenda points out that house league hockey for girls 10 to 15 years have sprung up all over Metro Toronto as well as local areas such as Thomhil]. It’s a puzzle to Brenda that the enthusiasm in Richmond Hill has been on the peaked sided. Only 14 girls have signed up to date.
