Ernest Manning 5A Team History: Ernest Manning heads into provincials with a 5–2 record. The Griffins were the 2023 5A (Tier 1) provincial champions and look to make a deep run and recapture the championship in 2025.

Notre Dame (Calgary) 5A Team History: 4-0 in the regular season, pre-strike. Beat Saint Francis in the provincial prep bowl. Ranked 3rd in the province going into provincials as a result.

Austin O'Brien 4A Team History: The Austin O'Brien Crusaders are eager prove they are better than their #10 4A ranking by Football Alberta.

Cardston High 3A Team History: Cardston High School Cougars finished the abbreviated season at 2 wins and 2 losses. We beat WR Myers to qualify for the provincial tournament, where we hope to succeed further in the tournament.

Holy Rosary 3A Team History: The Holy Rosary Raiders football team kicked off the season in dominant fashion, posting an impressive 6-0 record heading into provincial play despite playing every game on the road. The challenging schedule tested the team’s resilience and unity, but their preparation, discipline, and determination have shone through each week. With teamwork and focus as their foundation, the Raiders has proven they can rise to any challenge.

Notre Dame (Bonnyville) 9-a-side Team History: The Voyageurs are a joint school team made up of local Bonnyville high schools. The program started 12-a-side football in 1985 and in 1986, played in the inaugural Tier III championship against the Cochrane Cobras, placing second to a very dominant Cobras squad. Up until this year, the Voyageurs played in the competitive Wheatland league with mixed success. The coaching staff decided to drop down to 9-a-side as we felt the game better matched the athletes.

Wainwright High School 9-a-side Team History: What a year it has been for the Commandos, a season full of uncertainties, adversities and early injuries. Like all teams in Alberta, there were disruptions and long pauses that had many wondering if provincial play would even be a possibility. This Commandos team bought in from day one and worked hard every chance they had to take the field. The Commandos were the only team in the 9 a-side Central division to have the opportunity to finish their full season.

Breton High 6-a-side Team History: Breton is the smallest school in Alberta playing any level of football. We have been a team for 20 years, this is out 3rd trip to the Alberta Bowl failing to win the first two tries. This year we finished with a 3-1 record in the shortened season. With another win over Camrose in the semi finals. 56-18.

J.C. Charyk Hanna High 6-a-side Team History: The Hawks were fortunate to have a good year and are excited to be playing in the Alberta Bowl for the SSA Provincial Championship. They held the third seed ranking throughout the year and are now looking forward to competing against a very well coached and strong team from Breton High School. JC Charyk began playing 6-aside football in 2012 and are very grateful that there is football for small high schools with student bodies of less than 100 like themselves.
