No Hockey Tonight! :(

Unfortunately, the March Break and a last-minute problem mean that we won’t be bringing you hockey coverage tonight.

We are fully committed to full coverage of the CIS Nationals games starting on March 22, including bringing back Dave Ritchie as play-by-play host.

Good luck to the UNB V-Reds in their 3rd game of the AUS Championships! The series stands at 2-0 for the V-Reds, so they could sweep it in three!

Sports are back!

CHSR is proud to continue the tradition of coverage of the UNB V-Reds Men’s Hockey again this year! We’ve had to scale back a bit due to the loss to a move of our long-term, legendary play-by-play announcer, Dave Ritchie, but we’re bringing up a new wave of sports callers! Right now, we plan to cover all the local V-Reds games.

To see the full schedule, look on our Sports page — you can always get there from the menu at the top of the page.

We’ll looking to expand our sports coverage this year, with more sports being covered in more ways — including more sports coverage at both UNB and STU. In order to do that, however, we could use more volunteers interested in local sports. If interested, contact sports[at]chsrfm.ca, or drop by the station to fill out a membership application!
