Grizzlies primed for “masketball” season
Mandatory face coverings will place a premium on depth this year Posted

FIELD TWP- High school basketball uniforms are sporting a new accessory this season – masks intended to decrease the possibility of transmitting COVID-19. Players have to wear masks at practices, which started Jan. 4, and at all games in the pandemic-shortened season that gets underway this week.
For North Woods Grizzlies Head Coach Will Kleppe, that means adjustments in practices and game rotations as he looks to involve more players in contests.
We truly hope to have Kieffer Moore back for Norwich [on Saturday]. He will be on the training pitch this week, and Jordi Osei-Tutu will be there too, Harris said, as reported by his club s official website. Hopefully Greg Cunningham will return, and Aden Flint will be back in training as well, albeit a probably few weeks away from first-team football. Lee Tomlin is out running, so hopefully we’re moving in the right direction. It’s a little bit more positive.
“We quickly need to get players back on the training pitch. We need to get Jordi and Kieffer back into the group, and we need Aden and Sean Morrison back fit as soon as possible.

Thanks to Kamil Grosicki’s cross following a corner-kick, the Super Eagles star headed from the centre of the box to the bottom left corner that beat goalkeeper Chris Maxwell.
As a result of that, the 27-year-old now boasts of 12 headed goals since the start of the 2017-18 season.
