Document: Competition Streams - Regional Stream, Provincial Stream
(New for 2022!) 15U-18U girls teams will be able to register in one of two streams for the 2022 VA Premier Series. The Regional Stream will host seperate Premier Tournaments in Calgary and Edmonton for North/South Divisions until the Provincials (which will combine North/South teams). This will provide a more cost effective option for families by limiting travel. The Provincial Stream is intended for more competitive teams traditionally playing in our top divisions, club fees will generally be higher due to increased travel/training requirements. The above link provides a general description.
