Battle of Alberta
The Battle of Alberta (BOA) is a series of tournaments in which teams from the Calgary Sport and Social Club and the Edmonton Sport and Social Club meet on neutral turf in Red Deer or Sylvan Lake and compete for provincial domination. City pride is on the line as every game that teams win against the rival city within the tournament gets them one step closer to a victory dance. Points can be tacked onto each city’s total by earning a division championship, winning a skills competition during the day or claiming a pub game victory at the After-Party. Whoever has the most points once the event is done will become the BOA Champions!
The BOA series began in June 2007 when Calgary and Edmonton competed at the first ever BOA Dodgeball Tournament in Red Deer. The challenge has been extended to include two Sylvan Lake Beach Volleyball Tournaments per year, a Sylvan Lake Slo-Pitch Tournament and an Indoor Volleyball Tournament in Red Deer. No qualifications are necessary for BOA tournaments and The Club offers co-ed divisions for all skill levels. This is the perfect opportunity to participate in exciting and action-packed events and teams get the chance to drive home with major bragging rights!
Every year, teams from the Edmonton and Calgary Clubs battle for provincial domination at the CSSC's four annual Battle of Alberta events. Ever since the inaugural event in 2007, the two Clubs have been neck in neck. If you want to be part of the action and bring home the bragging rights for your city, learn more about each event through their respective page in the Tournaments menu.
