The 1st annual SPARTAN HOCKEY CANADA CUP will be
held from May 18th to May 21st in Calgary, Alberta at the
Team Canada Training Facility (WinSport Arenas – Canada Olympic Park).
The CANADA
CUP will see some of Alberta and Western Canada’s top 1999 born and 2003 born
players compete for the prestigious CANADIAN SHIELD.
The 2012 draw has brought some strong talent
from Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba to compete in both age divisions. The
1999 level will see the Alberta Selects, Alberta Chain, Alberta 99s and Calgary
JR Hitmen compete in out of pool play against the Winnipeg JR Steelers,
Saskatoon JR Blades, Alberta Alliance Hockey and the Red Deer Rustlers. All of
these teams contain players that are capable of competing at an Elite level and
the competition should be fierce over the course of the 4 days. Teams are
guaranteed 6 games with 3 -20 minute stop time periods.
Another reminder is that the Vancouver Challenge Cup will take place this weekend. We will be their to follow the 98 and 99 age groups as well.
This weekend promises to be a weekend full of exciting action in the 98 and 99 age groups!

Rosters for these teams?
how can the Alberta Chain be considered a Elite team. Their record for the Kelowna Heat Open division was 1-4. The Vancounver selects Black won the open tourney with one loss. Unfortunately there was many elite players in the open division. I would consider the top 2 players on each Open team someone to watch for.
