A big weekend for the High River Flyers with three games in as many days.

They open up with a home and home series against the Cubs starting Friday, October 20, in Medicine Hat.

Then it's into Okotoks Sunday for a date with the Heritage League Junior "B" Hockey League South Division leading Bisons.

Flyers Coach Tyson Avery says as excited as they are to test themselves against the Bisons, they can't look past the Cubs.

"They'll be a tough test. They're a young team, looking at their roster, they've got quite a few rookies on it, and I know they'll be ready to go to take us on."

The Flyers are just a point back of the Cubs for third spot in the division, and three back of the Bisons for first.
