OTTAWA, ON (June 20, 2016) –Β Football Canada unveils its Junior National Team roster in preparation for the 2016 International Federation of American Football (IFAF) U19 World Championship, June 28 – July 10, in Harbin, China.

Canada’s entry has retained a core group of players from its U18 and U19 national teams which competed against Team USA at the International Bowl series in Arlington, Texas.

“As a coaching staff, we’ve used the International Bowl series against the U.S. national teams as an opportunity to prepare, evaluate and select the top identified players to go on and represent our nation on the world stage,” Canada’s defensive coordinator and head coach Warren Craney said.

“After a long travel day, we will use our training camp in China to adjust to the twelve-hour (ET) time difference and come together in pursuit of a gold medal.”

After roughly a full day in the air, Team Canada will arrive in China on June 22 and begin training camp in preparation for their opening game against Mexico on June 30. They will then play on July 3, July 7 and July 9 or 10, depending on game results of the championship’s double-elimination play.

“This tournament and its competition keeps improving each cycle and we look forward to representing our great football nation in China.”
