Sept. 15, 2023: The Canadian team’s roster is set for the NORCECA Pan Am Cup Final 6 in Edmonton, Alberta, Sept. 19 to 24, 2023.
The team is made up of several players who donned the maple leaf earlier this year at the U21 World Championship, and others who have represented Canada on the NextGen team, including MVP of the recent Pan American Cup, Isaac Heslinga, where Canada won gold. Heslinga will serve as team captain, and is also on the roster of the University of Alberta Golden Bears.
The team is coached by former National Team standout, Dan Lewis, who heads up Canada’s NextGen program.
The five remaining teams are USA, Mexico, Cuba, Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico. All matches will be held at the Flair Airlines Hangar (Hall D) in The Edmonton Expo Centre.
