BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND "Support Our Troops"
Canadian and USA Hockey Sticks
For the Fall Season 2010 - - - Just in Time for Christmas !!!
Press Coverage December 6 2006 - Original
For Canadian troops serving overseas, even a small taste of home is deeply cherished.
For some troops serving in Afghanistan, the ability to play a game of pickup hockey is a simple way to pass the time between armed patrols and hunting Taliban insurgents.
But the ability to play has come under jeopardy as Canadian troops found the plastic blades on their hockey sticks could not keep up with the growing interest in this Canadian pastime -- they had a limited number of sticks, and the blades were snapping off.
So Cpl. Allan Billings, a technician who works with the Canadian Forces' Tactical Unmanned Aerial Vehicle unit, decided to take matters into his own hands. In a letter to his mother Shannon, Billings put in a special request for his next care package: Two good quality hockey sticks.
"He said: 'the sticks we have are kind of crappy'," said Shannon.
As luck would have it, Billing's father works for Flarrow Hockey -- a Canadian company that manufactures hockey sticks -- and when his boss found out about the special request, two hockey sticks bound for Kandahar, Afghanistan, became 50.
And these weren't just any sticks. Flarrow decided to manufacture a special "Support Our Troops" model: a flame-red hardwood shaft reinforced with fiberglass, graphite and Kevlar to ensure that the blade could stand the abuse.
"I thought it would be kind of neat if we did a special stick," said Denis Flarrow, owner of Flarrow Hockey. "It would mean more to the troops."
Flarrow then decided to take it one step further, producing 10,000 of the special "S.O.T. 2000" hockey sticks, emblazoned with the words "Support Our Troops" near the blade of the stick.
The special edition sticks are for sale at select stores across Canada -- with a portion of proceeds going to the Canadian Forces' Military Family Resource Centre, which offers support services to families of soldiers fighting overseas.
Meanwhile back in Kandahar, the 50 S.O.T. 2000's have given the troops a morale boost -- and a competitive advantage in the 13-team Kandahar-based Canadian and U.S. ball hockey league.
"We're one and one with the new sticks (and) it looks like we're in the playoffs," said Billings. "So we'll see what happens from there."
Here in Canada, the 10,000 special edition sticks are expected to sell out fast -- leaving no doubt that Canadians are rooting for our team overseas.
