Photo: It’s try-out time for Nunavut’s AWG hockey team

A goalie looks on as his team skates up ice at a scrimmage held Oct. 24 at the Arctic Winter Games Arena in Iqaluit. It’s an anxious time for a group of 40 midget hockey players gathered from across the territory for a selection camp. The 40 under-18-year-olds are trying out for Team Nunavut, which will compete at the 2014 Arctic Winter Games. Evaluations will begin Oct. 25 at 10:00 a.m., and there will be eight games over the weekend before cuts are made Oct. 27. The Arctic Winter Games will be held in Fairbanks, Alaska, from March 15 to 22 in 2014. (PHOTO BY DAVID MURPHY)
