    A little birdy told me that Dunedin SNC has pulled out of Gore. Is this true??? Is Dunedin still playing in the Southern SNC league?

    Dunedin has pulled out of this weekend’s tournament.

    I’ve asked the manager if we can get all the players together to see where they stand in terms of committing for the rest of the season.

    Welcome to the forum Lumpy.

    Pity to hear the team are pulling out of the Gore tournament and potentially the rest of the season. That’s a big change from two teams last season (or maybe that was the season before).

    Hi yes Ryan is right their seems to be a lack of interest from players this year compared to other years.

    There will be a meeting on Monday 18th May at 8.30 at the Dunedin Rink for all players who are interested in playing SNC in the SIHL to decide if there is enough interest or whether Dunedin will pull out of the competition completely.
    So if you want to play make sure you come so your opinion can be heard.

    Yeah, that seems to be a bit of a shame.

    It always seems there’s heaps of SNC players at practices and that, but im guessing peoples committments and things like that stop them playing in the weekend kinda of sucks really

    hopefully with a meeting there might be enough people out and about to play in these rounds

    SNC runs quite a bit differently than other SIHL teams. Practices don’t really relate to playing SIHL.

    And people feel much more free to play one round and then not play the next. This will be the first tournament in ages that we haven’t been able to front with a team at all, which is a shame.

    SNC means no contact remember that guys we dont want any more on ice incidents :-*

    #11244

    Actually, it means non-checking.

    #11245

    prity much the same thing and i dont think anyone actually cares about the term used

    I don’t know how many times I have to remind people as a referee that hockey is only ever non-checking, not not-contact. There is plenty of contact in non-checking ice hockey, not all of it is a penalty, some is good play, some is just incidental.

    Non-contact is a meaningless phrase in ice hockey and people shouldn’t use it.

    You guys missed out on a great tournament. Good, fast hockey with plenty of laughs in between.

    From 2 teams last year to none this year??

    yea come on dunedin, get with the game would you guys! its not hard to get a team down to gore, you all love playing so why wouldnt you go? why couldnt the beasts have entered or something?
    on the other note, kyle is right, non contact isnt a real term in hockey its a miscommunication between the organisers and the players. its non checking. but in saying that it doesnt really matter because when people say non contact they mean non checking. we all know theres going to be contact but it makes it easier to explain to people if we just say non contact. no body gives a f*&k really except for the people in charge and nobody listens to them anyways so who cares
