This year we plan to have the same entertainment value with live streaming, broadcasting, large LED screens throughout the rink and of course many scouts in attendance. We welcome and encourage the public to come out and watch some elite hockey”.

The Showcase will be held at the Co-operators Center in Regina, January 14th and 15th, 2019.

The Showcase will feature 3 teams from each league made up with the top 60 players in the SJHL and in the MJHL.  The 3 teams representing each league will consist of players aged 16 to 20 who will be selected by the coaches from their respective leagues.
