Finals

Finals: Handsworth vs Heritage Park
Consolation: New West vs Chilliwack


Chilliwack actually has the toughest draw but I think they have the most experience going into this tournament. They'll get tested early by both Steveston and Riverside before falling to Heritage Park in the semis.

Handsworth is the up and comer. They'll have an easy draw to the Finals only having to beat Boyd and New West to get there. Juniors Kirsten Hughes and Alex Sheppard should add an immediate impact for the Royals.

New West isn't really all that strong but have the easiest draw by far with possible opponents in Prince of Wales, Walnut Grove and MEI before facing Handsworth in the Semis. They've got some experience and add some talented Juniors as well.

Heritage Park will have a tough Quarterfinal matchup vs Fleetwood Park. Word on the street is that Harleen Sidhu goes there now. Once they get past Fleetwood, they should win out vs Chilliwack before taking the showdown against Handsworth.

Notable absentees include top ranked Brookswood, Port Moody, Kitsilano and Argyle.
