The Battlefords North Stars have deemed tomorrow "Black and White Day" in the Battlefords. If you are a North Star supporter you are encouraged to dawn your team colors tomorrow and all throughout the weekend. If you're going to class, wear black and white. If you're heading to the office, wear black pants, a black tie and a white shirt. If you've got the day off, make sure you're wearing your black sweats around the house.
Most importantly, when you head to the Civic Center for Game One, wear your white and black with pride.
How cool would it be if the first thing the Ice Wolves see tomorrow night is a 'sea of black and white' when they take the ice for warm-ups? The Winnipeg Jets mastered this in the NHL with the "White Noise." (Pictured Above)
I know that fans don't need to be told, but I sincerely hope that the many fans in North Star Nation really 'bring it' tomorrow night. Not in an obnoxious way, and not in a, "Honey, lets get the kids out of here" kind of way either. Cheer the hits, the saves, and goals and give these players the added boost that will put them over the edge.
You ask any player in any sport what 'fan support' does for their confidence. They'll tell you that it makes all of the difference in the world.
The players and coaching staff have taken the team this far already, and hopefully the best is yet to come. Fans, it's now time to do your thing. Wear your black and white with pride and prove to the SJHL once again that the Civic Center is the toughest place to play in the league.
A Game One preview will be posted tonight.
