As of now, they are the defending champions. The tournament kicks off on April 20, 2026, in Peterborough, Ontario. Regina has made an impressive 11 appearances at this tournament.

They have a storied history, having won five national championships: 1983, 1988, 1994, 1999, and most recently in 2025. Their performance last year was highlighted by Maddox Schultz being named tournament MVP.

Regina enters this year’s competition with a strong record of 38 wins, three losses, and three ties during the regular season. They scored 253 goals while allowing just 118—an impressive goal differential that underscores their dominance.

In the playoffs, Regina maintained their form with a record of 12 wins and three losses. They scored 71 goals against only 40 allowed. Their path to the Telus Cup included a decisive victory over the Moose Jaw Warriors, winning 5-1 in the Western Regionals final.

The tournament format will include six teams: five regional champions and one host team. Only a few teams have ever won back-to-back titles—most notably the Red Deer Chiefs and the Notre Dame Hounds.

“It takes a lot of determination. Some guys on this team have been in this spot before,” said player Cooper Bratton. The pressure is palpable as they aim to join an elite group of repeat champions.

Details remain unconfirmed about how other teams will stack up against Regina. But with players like Ryan Hodgins expressing excitement and readiness—”We’re ready to go. It’s very exciting”—the stage is set for an intense competition ahead.
