[PhilCanyon]

Alberta, Canada has a professional league called Canada West Pro Inline Hockey League. They are coming down to Colorado on June 18th to play the East Conference champs and the West Conference champs. Their website is www.rollerhockey.ab.ca/

Who's going to win those games?

Do they have rosters anywhere of who are on the teams?

[PhilCanyon]

Nothing posted. These teams are made up of mostly Juniors, ages 22 and younger.

This is the pro league that is intending to join up with PIHA for the 2007 season if everything can we worked out to PIHA's satisfaction. Apparently, coming down to Colorado is the first step. I don't know what the other steps are.

The Canada West league General Manager says the players are between ages 21 and 26.

The Canada West Pro Inline Hockey League has been in operation for three years; under the host League - Northern Stars Roller Hockey.
There are 5 teams vying to represent Canada West in Colorado Springs on June 18th for the PIHA Championships.
All of Canada West players are all ice hockey players and don't get involved with Inline Hockey until the ice hockey season is over; usually the end of April.
Edmonton; Alberta; Canada is a mecca for ice hockey; the Edmonton OILERS; our NHL team is a fine example and is the largest concentrated area for Inline Hockey with over 3000 players in Canada as well.
The Canada West plans to play two games on Sunday - June 18th - playing the champion teams from the East and Rocky Mountain conferences. To make it more interesting Canada West has put up $1,500 with the winner taking all.
Canada West will know this weekend - which team will be representing Canada West at the PIHA Championships.
