“If you are going to name the tournament after somebody, he certainly had his thumbprint all over everything related to the Sweetheart (tournament),” said Three Oaks athletic director Joel Arsenault.
Garth Turtle held several different positions in the school sports scene on Prince Edward Island for close to 40 years. The Three Oaks Senior High School’s senior AAA girls’ basketball tournament is now known as the Garth Turtle Memorial Sweetheart basketball tournament. Turtle, a longtime organizer of the Sweetheart tournament and coach of the host Axewomen, died in September 2021. - FileSUMMERSIDE, P.E.I.
Turtle, who died in September 2021, also served as athletic director at Three Oaks for 10 years and was a longtime coach of the Three Oaks senior AAA girls’ basketball team, including several years after his retirement. “It was like his trademark saying,” said Arsenault. “It’s stencilled in front of the home team’s bench, where he used to stand coaching.”
