Ice Hockey: Fylde Flyers 7 - Blackburn Eagles 0

Saturday 2nd February 2012
National Ice Hockey League Division 2 North
Fylde Flyers 7 - Blackburn Eagles 0

Period Scores: 4-0, 2-0, 1-0
Shots on Goal: Flyers 75- Eagles 29
Penalties: Flyers 95 - Eagles 56

Flyers Scorers:  Danny Jones 2+0, Elvis Veldze 1+1, Butcher, Caunce, Pirie, Bracegirdle all 1+0, Clark, Melbourne, Hulme, Fearon, Charlton, Grinbergs all 0+1

Fylde Flyers picked up their first shut out of the season with a 7-0 home victory over Lancashire rivals Blackburn Eagles.

It was the first game in Fylde colours for former Trafford Metros player Jason Pirie who signed on deadline day and also former Blackpool Seagull Ryan Johnston.

Pirie had a memorable debut with a goal in the first period and a statisticians' nightmare 2 minute penalty for crosschecking  plus 2+2 for roughing plus 2+2+game for leaving the penalty box all in the last minute of the second period.

By then, Flyers were 6-0 up and the result looked like a foregone conclusion.

A goal-light but action packed 3rd period saw a further 91 penalty minutes handed out - 63 for Flyers and 28 for Blackburn.

Fylde Flyers wll expect a tougher game tonight away to Solihull Barons.

The Flyers are next in home action next Saturday 9th February when they welcome the Barons back to the Subzero Ice Arena in Cleveleys for a 5pm face off.

One of the most iconic players in the history of golf, Annika Sorenstam, will be returning to Mission Hills Country Club in April, this time to serve as honorary host for the celebrity pro-am for the Kraft Nabisco Championship, a tournament she won three times.

The ten-time major Champion will not only play in the tournament’s pro-am, but also provide a legendary presence throughout the week as the top players in the world converge on Rancho Mirage hoping to add their name to the list of prestigious winners of golf’s first major of the year.

Tickets for the 2013 Kraft Nabisco Championship, being held April 1-7, are now on sale and are priced from $15 for the celebrity pro-am hosted by Annika, to $25 for any one-day ticket (valid Thursday to Sunday of Championship) and $225 for a weeklong badge with Clubhouse valet parking . The ultimate all-inclusive experience, the 18^th Green Suites built on the water, is also on sale. Tickets can be purchased online by visiting www.KNCgolf.com or by calling 760-324-4546.

“The Kraft Nabisco Championship has such a rich history and I’m honored to be able to play a role in its equally exciting future,” said the Hall of Famer. “While I have remained very busy with my young family and business interests since I stopped playing competitively, I will always miss the thrill of tournament week at a major championship. I’m looking forward to being back on the golf course at Mission Hills, spending time with the other players, fans, sponsors and some of my celebrity friends doing whatever I can to contribute to another exciting championship.”

Some of the celebrities scheduled to appear this year are Ray Romano, Craig T. Nelson, Kevin Nealon, Dennis Haysbert, Thomas Gibson, Joe Mantegna, Cheech Marin, Alice Cooper, Joe Theismann, Scott Wolf and Ron Perlman.

In addition to her role as honorary host of the Kraft Nabisco Championship Celebrity pro-am,  Annika will do some television work with the Golf Channel and play an important role in the fundraising efforts benefiting F.I.N.D. Food Bank, the tournament’s designated charity.

“As a three-time champion of this tournament, Annika will go down as one of the greatest champions in Kraft Nabisco Championship history and we are thrilled to have her back,” said Gabe Codding, Tournament Director of the Kraft Nabisco Championship. “I know that Annika’s presence during tournament week will serve as an inspiration to the players in the field and provide a constant reminder of this major championship’s great traditions.”
