Rex Turple Memorial Hockey Education Fund

Born April 17, 1930. Rex Turple played Minor Hockey in Olds and advanced to the Olds Elks Intermediate A team, playing with them for 9 years.
He traveled to Europe to coach and play hockey for Scotland, England and Austria.
In 1955-56 Rex played with the Ponoka Stampeders to win the Canadian Intermediate A Championship.
He also played with the Red Deer Rustlers, which won the Western Canadian Intermediate Championship in 1958-1959.
Rex continued to play Senior hockey in Kamloops, BC and was still playing Oldtimers Hockey with the Capri Colts of Red Deer at age 59. He passed away October 15, 1990.
In tribute to his passion for hockey a Memorial Education Fund for hockey players was established.
