ASSINIBOIA — The ongoing benefits of Assiniboia’s Southland Co-op Centre continue to shine.
Kicking off rink season will occur on Sept. 6 in Assiniboia when a pre season Western Hockey League game between Moose Jaw Warriors and Swift Current Broncos will be held at SCC.
This will be a full day as it also includes a tailgate party to cheer on the Riders on the big screen outside, followed by the hockey game inside.
An added bonus is 98 CKHD sponsoring a premium booth for the event, going up for auction the same day tickets go on sale July 23.
Southland Co-op Centre’s social media post announcing the event states, “Looking forward to another unreal season in our state-of-the-art facility.”
Since it opened, Southland Co-op Centre has played host to a number of WHL and SJHL games, as well as served as home arena for Weyburn Red Wings in 2024 when they incurred arena issues. The Regina Pat Canadians of the U18AAA hockey league also used SCC for a playoff game in 2024 when their arena was booked for other events. These ongoing big-ticket games are indicative of the desirable facility and its amenities.
The town of Assiniboia in turn benefits as it draws people to town creating an economic boost in the food, fuel and hospitality industry.
