Here’s the latest available on the Centennial Cup based on recent public reports:
- 2025 Centennial Cup: Calgary Canucks won the championship, defeating the Melfort Mustangs in the final. This confirms Calgary as the host and the eventual champion for 2025.[2][5]
- 2024 Centennial Cup: Oakville Blades hosted the tournament in Oakville, Ontario, with Sixteen Mile Sports Complex serving as the venue; the event ran in May 2024 as the Canadian Junior Hockey League national championship.[1][3]
- 2023 Centennial Cup and earlier: Portage la Prairie hosted the 2023 edition in May 2023, with Canada-wide junior A teams competing for the cup.[8][1]
Notes and context:
- The Centennial Cup is the national championship for Canadian Junior Hockey League (CJHL) Junior A hockey. Host sites rotate, with host teams often publicly announced ahead of each year’s event.[1]
- The most recent confirmed results show the 2025 champion and 2024 host, giving a sense of recent patterns for venues and winners.[2][1]
