There are six players playing including Logan Wedgewood, Garrett Cyr, Logan Seifrit, Cory Scammell, Markus Fergusson and Ryan Kosolofski representing Team Alberta at the Canada Cup being played in Kindersley, Saskatchewan.  Mike Johnson and Rob Boik who are both instructors with the Baseball Academy are coaches on Team Alberta.  Mike is a full - time instructor and former Major League Baseball player and Rob has helped the academy in Florida for spring training over the past five years.  The Baseball Academy represents just shy of 1/3 of the Team Alberta contingent this year in Saskatchewan.  The Canada Cup is a showcase for Team Canada and gives players and coaches an opportunity to be identified for the Junior National Team.  Greg Hamilton will select 24 players from the tournament to attend the fall instructional series that is held at Disney Wide World of Sports in Orlando, Florida in early October.

Note:  Mike Johnson will be joining the Edmonton Capitals after the tournament is complete in Kindersley.
