THE CENTENNIAL CUP

The Centennial Cup, presented by Tim Hortons

As Canada's National Junior A Championship prepares to celebrate its 50th anniversary in May in Portage la Prairie, Man., Hockey Canada, in partnership with the CJHL, has announced that Canada's National Junior A Championship will return to its original name - the Centennial Cup and a new trophy - starting in 2020. Officialy it will be called the Centennial Cup, presented by Tim Hortons.

For the 2023 tournament Hockey Canada had droped the "presented by Tim Hortons" moniker as Tim Hortons withdrew its sponsorship in response to the Hockey Canada sexual assault scandal. Tim Horton has subsequently re-instated their sponsorship for 2024.

The National Junior A Championship, is an annual ice hockey competition that determines the Canadian Junior A champion. It is played under the supervision of Hockey Canada and the Canadian Junior Hockey League.

Centennial Cup Design:

From my obserations of the new Centennial Cup, the new trophy contains elements of previous national championship trophies.

  • 1. The base, shaped like a baseball home plate, the three silver supporting hockey sticks, the top wooden tier and top silver bowl are all similar to design elements of the Royal Bank Cup used from 1996 to 2018.
  • 2. In the center of the new trophy, between the hockey sticks, is a five tiered wooden column, similar to the six tierd column of the Centennial Cup used from 1971 to 1989.
  • 3. On top of the center column is a wooden bison similar to but, larger, to the one found on top of the Centennial Cup used from 1987 to 1989.

I do not see any elements in the new trophy that are in any way reminiscent to the Centennial Cup trophy used from 1990 to 1996.

Event Overview:

The Road to the Centennial Cup includes 118 teams in nine leagues - from Canmore to Flin Flon to Campbellton. The leagues include Alberta Junior Hockey League (AJHL), Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League (SJHL), Manitoba Junior Hockey League (MJHL), Superior International Junior Hockey League (SIJHL), Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League (NOJHL), Ontario Junior Hockey League (OJHL), Central Canada Hockey League (CCHL), Ligue de hockey junior AAA du Quebec (LHJAAAQ) and Maritime Hockey League (MHL).
