2014 Presidents Cup (box lacrosse)

The 2014 Presidents Cup is the National Senior "B" Championship of Canada. This year's tournament is being hosted by the Tri-City Bandits[1] and the West Coast Senior Lacrosse Association. The Senior B national championship will be played at the Poirier Sport & Leisure Complex in Coquitlam, British Columbia.

One team enters the tournament after an undefeated season;[2] St. Albert Miners. After a perfect 16–0 regular season, the Miners swept their way to a Rocky Mountain Lacrosse League championship.

## Event[edit]

On opening day, the second game of the tournament involving the St. Albert Miners and Akwesasne Outlawz was cancelled[3] due to a lack of eligible players. St. Albert was declared winner by forfeit, 1–0. All players attending the event were required by the Canadian Lacrosse Association to complete an online course designed by the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport in order to compete.
