The 2024 edition of Team Brick Alberta is comprised of 18 exceptional 2014 birth year Athletes from all over Alberta. Their journey to get to this point started in January at West Edmonton Mall in Edmonton, Alberta where the top 120 prospects competed in an evaluation camp. The staff then compiled a list of the top 50 players for our final combine evaluation at West Edmonton Mall in March. After deep deliberation in the war room the staff identified the top 18 players to be part of Team Brick Alberta. The combine consisted of Small area games, Team practices skill practices, positional practices, team building and games. The combine gave the staff the ability to evaluate the players in all environments that we feel are conducive to build a successful team. That brings us to this exceptional group of athletes you see today that were successful through the process. Our team motto is Row the Boat (One Goal One Direction). We wish all the teams good luck in the 2024 Brick Invitational. Our 18 rostered players come from 14 different towns/cities throughout Alberta.
