Teams from British Columbia, the Prairies and Quebec joined the tournament for the first time ever. Over the course of the three-day event, over 1500 members gathered at the Tahir Hall gymnasium in Maple, Ontario.
In the championship division, it came down to a best-of-three match between Peace Village and Northern Ontario – with Northern Ontario attempting to defend its title from last year. Ultimately, Peace Village took the prize home, but only after an intense challenge. Northern Ontario placed second and Mississauga took third. In Division II, Western Ontario took home the win, Brampton East placed second and Toronto West placed third. The team from the Prairie Region took home the prize for Best Team Attitude.
