Minto Cup Begins

The Minto Cup, Canada's Junior 'A' lacrosse championship, begins today when the Edmonton Miners (Alberta provincial champions) take on the Burnaby Lakers (British Columbia provincial champions) at 7:30 PM Pacific Time. This tournament is being hosted by the New Westminister Salmonbellies (British Columbia) and features the two teams noted above along with the Ontario provincial champion Six Nations Arrow Express.

This tournament begins with a round robin where all teams play each other once. The top team after the round robin gets a spot in the championship game while the third place team battles the second place team for a berth in the championship game.
