Battlefords AAA Sharks head coach Jean Fauchon resigned Tuesday and will no longer be serving as the team's bench boss. After meeting with the players, Fauchon along with his assistant coaches Sean Fauchon and Glenn Heidt have cut ties with the team.

Four local baseball teams were honoured on October 29 in Regina by the Saskatchewan Baseball Association.

It was a victory for both the Lake Lenore boys and girls' soccer teams last weekend. Two provincial championships were held October 28-29 and both Lake Lenore senior teams brought home the gold.

It was a good way to end the soccer season.

They may have been missing a few on the bench, but the Broncos were able to claim victory anyway.

The streak continues. The Battlefords North Stars extended their winning streak to eight games last weekend and during that streak they have had a player honoured with a Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League weekly award.

Al Gaetz is one of the six individuals and one team in who will be inducted into the Humboldt and District Sports Hall of Fame in 2011. "I feel it's a real honour," said Gaetz. "I'm pleased to be inducted.

There was a lot of kicking and punching going on at the Humboldt Collegiate Institute (HCI) gymnasium over the weekend, but in a constructive way. The Humboldt Tae Kwon-Do club played host to the 2011 Sask Cup Tae Kwon-Do tournament on October 29.

October will be a month the Battlefords Midget Stars will hope to quickly put behind them. The Stars went 0-9 during the month and fall to 0-11-0-0 on the season after losing 8-2 in Regina and 8-3 in Wilcox to the Notre Dame Hounds.

The Battlefords Midget Barons season is well under way, as they are six games into the season. The Barons played twice at home on the weekend and fell 7-3 and 8-3, despite some impressive goaltending efforts.
