Football Alberta mini-camps in Red Deer this weekend

Jun 13, 2019 | 12:53 PM

Both Team Alberta’s that will be competing this summer representing Alberta will gather in Red Deer this weekend for Mini-Camps at Great Chief Park.

For Team Alberta U18 this will be the last chance to prepare for the upcoming Football Canada Cup in Kingston, ON which will take place from July 6-13. Last years Team Alberta took a lead into the fourth quarter against Saskatchewan in the Gold Medal game only to come up short and leave with the silver medal in the event held in Calgary. This years team looks to finish the job and will start to prepare in earnest this weekend.

Team Alberta U17 will be taking a different approach. As the developmental team for Team Alberta U18 it is all about improving through the competitions presented and although the bulk of their competitions will be vs. various high school teams in Maui, Hawaii this August 4-12, they will start the process with a mini-camp this weekend that will culminate with an exhibition scrimmage vs. Team Saskatchewan U17 on Sunday, June 16 at 10:00 a.m..

Here are the rosters for both teams:
