OTTAWA, ONT. – The field is set.
Following regional qualifiers across British Columbia, the Prairies, and Ontario, 15 teams have earned their place at the inaugural The Road to Okotoks and The Morneau Cup presented by Rawlings, set for July 14–19 in Okotoks, Alberta.
From coast to coast, 29 teams began the quest to Okotoks, with each region showcasing the depth and strength of amateur baseball in Canada. In the end, seven teams advanced out of Ontario qualifiers, four from British Columbia, and four from the Prairies to complete the national qualifier process.
Due to inclement weather in Alberta, Baseball Canada was unable to complete the Prairie qualifier playoffs. As a result, the Vauxhall Academy Jets secured qualification with a semi-final victory. The remaining three spots have been awarded to the AHP Renegades, Team Saskatchewan, and the Sylvan Lake Gulls Prep, all of whom finished among the top four teams in the qualifier but were unable to compete in the semi-final and/or final round games.
“These qualifiers delivered exactly what we had hoped for,” said Baseball Canada CEO Jason Dickson. “We saw a high level of competition across all three qualifers and a strong commitment from programs across the country. We’re excited to welcome this group to Okotoks and continue building what we believe will become the premier amateur event in Canada.”
