by Hockey Manitoba  |  November 14, 2003 12:12 pm

Winnipeg – Hockey Manitoba and the Saskatchewan Hockey Association are proud to announce the members for Team Western who will be competing in the Under 17 World Hockey Challenge in St. John’s, Newfoundland from December 29, 2003 to January 4, 2004.

The announcement of the final roster, which includes 11 players from Saskatchewan and 11 players from Manitoba, concludes a lengthy selection process that has been going on in both provinces. Players first take part in regional camps. The top players from each region then compete against each other in a Spring Tournament, and from there, the top players attend a Summer Camp. Eleven (11) players are then chosen from each of the Manitoba and Saskatchewan Branches to form Team Western.

Representing Manitoba on this year’s Team Western are the following players: Alex Archibald, Dane Crowley, Rick Lecuyer, Beau Prokopetz, Codey Burki, Tyler Dittmer, Brodie Dupont, Frazer McLaren, Myles Stoesz, Brock Trotter and Jordan Wilson.

Joining the Manitoba players will be the Saskatchewan contingent of: Real Cyr, Luke Brisebois, Derek Edwards, R.J. Larochelle, Kealin Wong, Chris Durand, Tanner Gillies, David Linsley, Michael Kaye, Justin Scott, and Ryan Sawka.

Team Western departs for St. John’s on December 26th. Team Western will see its first action in an exhibition game against Germany on Sunday, December 28th. Tournament play begins Tuesday, December 30th versus Russia.
