New Provincial Champions Crowned in Saskatoon

REGINA, SK - Saskatchewan Soccer Association (SSA)’s SaskTel Soccer For Life Youth Indoor 9-Aside Provincial Championships took place in Saskatoon, SK on March 2 - 4, 2018. The SSA would like to thank Saskatoon Youth Soccer Inc. for hosting the event, the spectators for their support, and our sponsors, SaskTel and Soccer Locker, for their partnership.
 
The format for the Soccer For Life Youth Indoor 9-aside Provincial Championships included the tracking for the Most Valuable Player (MVP) award. This is determined by the coaches ranking the top two opposing team’s athletes in each game throughout the tournament. At the end of the tournament, the player with the most points is the Tournament (age group) MVP.  A Team Fair-Play Award is also presented. The Award is based on the determined scores of the officials on the conduct of the players, coaches and fans of each team during each match. A cumulative team score is recorded throughout the course of round-robin play.
