Mar 27, 2018 | 11:57 AM

Hockey Alberta has announced its rosters for the 2018 Alberta Cup.

Eight teams will take to the ice at the Agrena in Spruce Grove from April 25-29 inclouding two from each of Calgary and Edmonton, and one each representing the South, Central, Northeast and Northwest zones of the province.

Twenty 2003-born players comprise each roster, along with volunteers serving as head coach, assistant coaches, trainer, and director of operations. Rosters were selected in the aftermath of zone camps held March 23-25 throughout the province.

“We are very excited to take the next step in the Road to Red Deer,” said Manager of Team Alberta, Mike Kraichy. “We’re looking forward to a fantastic event in Spruce Grove this year, and for the high level of talent that will hit the ice.”

The teams will play in a four-day, tournament-format competition. The event also features an education seminar hosted by the Western Hockey League.
