Hockey Canada U17 World Challenge - Details
The tournament features elite teams from Canada, the United States, Sweden, Finland and Czechia. It is one of the most important early international stages for the next generation of hockey stars. This is the first time a minor hockey association has been awarded hosting duties.

U17 World Challenge

Hockey Canada U17 World Challenge alumni include NHL superstars Connor McDavid, Macklin Celebrini, Leon Draisaitl, Nathan MacKinnon, Matthew and Brady Tkachuk, the Hughes brothers, Mitch Marner, Patrick Kane, Brad Marchand, David Pastrnák, William Nylander, Mikko Rantanen and Nick Suzuki, along with legends including Joe Sakic, Mats Sundin, Carey Price, Jarome Iginla, Joe Thornton and the Sedin brothers.

More than one-third of current NHL players have participated in this event, including former Oakville Rangers and current NHLers Ethan Belchetz, Luke Evangelista and Evan Bouchard.

The event is broadcast on TSN so we want to put on a great show, fill Sixteen Mile Sports Complex and have an amazing week celebrating the greatest game on Earth with some of the best young players in the world representing their countries. Hope you can be a part of it as a volunteer or spectator. Thanks for being Rangers!

Looking forward to seeing you there!!
