Always Room <strong>and</strong> a Coach for another team….’P’ for Participation<br />

Ted Veinot <strong>and</strong> the ‘C’ Boys<br />

Elementary Sports Teams<br />

Similarly, in the 1980s <strong>and</strong> 1990s, the school fielded elementary soccer <strong>and</strong> basketball<br />

teams, boys <strong>and</strong> girls <strong>and</strong> co-ed, sometimes ‘A’, ‘B’ <strong>and</strong> even ‘C’ teams<br />

206<br />

The team members top right were girls county champions in 1991. Under<br />

the coaching of Ted Veinot, <strong>Mahone</strong> <strong>Bay</strong> girls, with a whole string of county<br />

championships, became the team to beat in the late ‘80s <strong>and</strong> 1990s. They were<br />

Lunenburg-Queen’s champions nine out of twelve years, the last time in 1999.<br />

The elementary boys were three times district champions under his coaching.<br />

No other coach has such an elementary school basketball record. He<br />

also coached soccer when needed, <strong>and</strong> coached various junior high teams.
