The 12 team field for the 2009 edition of the Canada Classic hosted by the Wyevale Tribe is set. It looks like it will be another great weekend (June 26-28) of ball in the Georgian Bay area. Several highly ranked ISC II teams will compete with some junior teams gearing up for their eliminations, and some other quality teams. The competition should be good throughout the weekend.
Teams are divided into 4 pools of 3. Each team will play 2 round robin games that will determine their seeding within the single elimination playoff bracket.

The teams will be competing for $2,500 in prize money. The champion will be saddled with the responsibility of caring for $1,500 of the prize pool. It is a responsibility every team that will be in attendance has assured me they are more than willing to take on.
