Alf Barbour played for the Taber Cooks (five players had the surname Cook and were sometimes called the Taber Chefs) on the 1912 and 1913 Alberta provincial champion teams.

[1] In 1915 Barbour took a job in Blairmore, Alberta as a pharmacist, earning his nickname 'Doc', and played competitive amateur hockey there.

In 1919 Barbour played his last professional season with the Victoria Aristocrats.
