Calgary Mountaineers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Calgary Mountaineers are a box lacrosse organization based out of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The organization represents teams at three levels of the Rocky Mountain Lacrosse League: a Senior B squad, along with Junior A and B teams.
The Senior Mountaineers have existed for over 30 years, and in 1983, captured the Canadian Senior B championship, the Presidents Cup. The Junior A Mountaineers were created in 2006, and are one of four teams in the province at the Junior A level. The Junior B Mountaineers were created in the late 1990s, and have twice captured provincial championships - in 2000 and 2004.
The Junior A Mounties will be the host team for the 2008 Minto Cup, Canada's national Junior A championship. The tournament will be held at the Max Bell Centre in August.[1]
