The first match of the day will see the Host Westman Wildcats playing their northern counterparts from Yellowhead at 3:30pm.
Veterans Sherri Bowles, Kaleigh Scott and Robyn Garbutt will lead Yellowhead with youngsters Sam Weirer and Kelsie Scott giving Yellowhead a healthy shot of speed and offence.
Westman will rely on a balanced approach with a veteran defense core of three seniors anchoring the point. The Wildcats will roll three lines and try to use a fast aggressive approach, which should lend itself to a good opening game for the tournament.
The second game of the day will see the always tough Parkland Panthers led by Team Manitoba goalie Tara Lacquette, battle the Regina Rebels of the Saskatchewan AAA league. Regina has a young hard working team led by veteran Chelsea Bender.
The 8:15 match will round out the day with the Eastman Selects of the Winnipeg AA league playing Balmoral Hall of Winnipeg. Snipers Darion Bruyere and Rachele Bosc will lead Eastman while veteran defenseman Nicole Gregoire anchors the backend.
Two members of Canada's U18 National Team, Breann Frykas and Bailey Bram lead Balmoral while two Westman products playing for Balmoral get a chance to show their talents at home, Nellie Minchull of Peirson and KL Pollock of Virden.

Sep 30, 2007, 12:42 pm
The Westman Wildcats started the 2007-2008 season on the road with an impressive 6-1 win against the Weyburn Gold Wings of the Saskatchewan Midget Female AAA League.
Westman was playing their first game of the season while their oponents were playing their fifth match of this early season.
Westman coaches were looking to see how their squad would stack up this season given that Weyburn is an early top 4 team in the Sasktchewan league, and they were more than happy with the way the team competed in this game.
The Wildcats started off with a goal on the first shift, Brit Phillips scoring from Brandi Pollock to set the tone early.
Erin Morrison put the cats up by two late in the first with assists going to Amy Van Buskirk and Jen Durnin.
Weyburn scored early in the second on the powerplay to bring the home squad to within one.
Phillips scored her second of the game six seconds later from Laura Williams to restore the 2 goal margin.
Before the period was over Morrison scored her second tallie from Durnin and Pollock to go into the break up by three.
In the third the Cats got two more markers with Cheryl Shackel scoring from Durnin and Morrison and Phillips getting her hat trick unassisted to round out the scoring.
The Cats will take alot of positives from this outing and will build on it over the next few weeks getting ready for their home tournament at the end of October.
PAW TRACKS: Kim Jory turned aside 23 of 24 shots while her teammates fired 43 at the Weyburn net. The Cats took 9 of 15 minors handed out. No Cat player was a minus on the night. The PP was 0 for 6 and the PK allowed 1 on 9 chances.
Sep 9, 2007, 7:49 am Westman Wildcat camp is ready to go!
