An exciting opportunity is coming for young athletes in the rural southeast. In anticipation of the upcoming Manitoba Summer Games, tryouts will be held in May for those looking to join one of southern Manitoba’s girls soccer teams.

For the second straight year, the Niverville Nighthawks had an up-and-down season. When they were playing well, the Nighthawks were hard to beat. They played strong and looked like one of the best teams in the MJHL.

In the coming weeks, Winnipeg’s downtown will be hit by a whiteout, this one of the welcome variety. With the Winnipeg Jets securing their place in this year’s Stanley Cup playoffs, it’s time for the traditional downtown street parties to begin.

Niverville resident Terrylinn Johnson won four medals in speedskating at the Special Olympics Canada Winter Games held in Calgary on February 27–March 2. This is only the latest of Johnson’s accomplishments in her long history of competitive athletics, spanning back to the 1990s.

The Niverville Nighthawks have been eliminated from the MJHL postseason after a 3–2 season-ending loss in game four at the CRRC on Thursday night to the Steinbach Pistons.

On Saturday, March 30, the CRRC in Niverville will host an Accessible Sport Expo. The event is put together by Accessible Sport Connections (ASC), a non-profit that works to provide those with disabilities opportunities to participate in sports and recreational activities that are adapted to their needs.
