2014 Presidents Cup (box lacrosse)
The 2014 Presidents Cup is the National Senior "B" Championship of Canada. This year's tournament is being hosted by the Tri-City Bandits[1] and the West Coast Senior Lacrosse Association. The Senior B national championship will be played at the Poirier Sport & Leisure Complex in Coquitlam, British Columbia.
One team enters the tournament after an undefeated season;[2] St. Albert Miners. After a perfect 16-0 regular season, the Miners swept their way to a Rocky Mountain Lacrosse League championship.
Event
On opening day, the second game of the tournament involving the St. Albert Miners and Akwesasne Outlawz was cancelled[3] due to a lack of eligible players. St. Albert was declared winner by forfeit, 1-0. All players attending the event were required by the Canadian Lacrosse Association to complete an online course designed by the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport in order to compete.
