GAME(S) OF THE WEEK:

Provincials Qualifying

Most of the qualifying has been done and most of the opponents are set for next weekend’s first round of the ASAA Provincials. However there still is a game on Tuesday in the Metro Edmonton Region between Leduc and Bellerose to determine the Tier II rep that will play Lloydminster. Plus, the Brian Fryer (Top 4) Tier I Playoff Bracket and the Wildcard for the Regional Tier I draw have yet to be determined by the ASAA. Again, so we are abundantly clear – the Football Alberta Rankings do not determine qualifying for the Brian Fryer Bracket – a special committee of the ASAA has been struck to do that and they will make their announcement by Monday.
