History
The Pla-Mors Hockey Club was organized by former junior hockey players who still loved the game and desired to play. The possibility of reviving the old Senior Hockey League was discussed. Sponsors considered it a bad risk. In 1959 the players decided to go ahead and organize, even if it meant costing them money personally the first year. Their purpose was to promote their own calibre of hockey and foster minor hockey. They were instrumental in re-organizing the Saskatchewan Senior League consisting of Moose Jaw, Yorkton, Regina and Saskatoon. The first coach of the Pla-Mors was Roy Belbin, captain George Hunchuk, manager Jim Chadwick and trainer Earl Gray. Executive for 1959-1960 were Jim Chadwick, president; Leo Heisler, vice-president; Ernie Webb, secretary-treasurer and executive members Clarence Waldo, Merv Hulse and Dr. Bill Mullen.
