KELOWNA — The best of the best in the west. That’s how the Kelowna Minor Hockey Association is describing an upcoming Bantam AAA tournament hitting the ice at Rutland Arena in April.
The 2104 Western Canada Bantam AAA Championship is underway from April 3rd – 6th, hosting the provincial champions from Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and B.C., which have yet to be decided.
As the host team, the Kelowna Junior Rockets are secured a spot in the tournament.
“We’ve kicked into high gear,” says Kelowna Minor Hockey Executive Director, Leonie Popoff, “we’re just hoping to put on a really good event that people are going to want to come out and enjoy some very talented hockey players.”
Scouts from across the country are expected to attend the round robin tournament to catch the elite 13 to 14 year old players prior to the May 1st WHL bantam draft.
