For the Kelowna Owls, there are two sides to the coin in hosting the 2017 Interior Savings

The support and comfort of playing at home is tempered by the pressure and expectations of being the two-time defending champs.

Regardless of the outcome, 翱飞濒蝉91裸聊视频� head coach Harry Parmar said it all adds up to three days of hype and excitement his players and the KSS student body are sure to embrace.

91裸聊视频泪迟91裸聊视频檚 an exciting week, the student body gets ramped up and the school is just 别濒别肠迟谤颈肠,91裸聊视频� said Parmar, now in his 10th season as 翱飞濒蝉91裸聊视频� coach. 91裸聊视频泪迟91裸聊视频檚 great for our kids (players), 迟丑别谤别91裸聊视频檚 a lot of interest in this event and they get to be part of it.

91裸聊视频泪迟91裸聊视频檚 just a matter of them controlling that excitement and emotion a bit and just going out, playing the games and really enjoying 颈迟.91裸聊视频�

The Owls, who won the event in both , will open play Thursday at 7 p.m. against the South Kamloops Titans, the second-ranked AAA team in B.C.

In what is arguably one of the strongest fields in recent memory, the draw also features the top three ranked 4A teams in 叠.颁.91裸聊视频擶补濒苍耻迟 Grove, KSS and Oak Bay.

惭补苍颈迟辞产补91裸聊视频檚 No. 1 team, the Oak Park Raiders, will be joined by the Regina Campbell Tartans, the top-ranked team from Saskatchewan, and the Raymond Comets, the No. 2 team from Alberta.

At the top of the 翱飞濒蝉91裸聊视频� wish-list is a meeting with Walnut Grove in the final and a chance for some payback. The No. 1-ranked Gators have beaten KSS in all three meetings between the schools this season.

Still, with the quality of teams on this 测别补谤91裸聊视频檚 draw, Parmar said 迟丑别谤别91裸聊视频檚 no guarantee that either KSS or Walnut Grove will be in 厂补迟耻谤诲补测91裸聊视频檚 championship game.

91裸聊视频泪迟91裸聊视频檚 just 濒辞补诲别诲,91裸聊视频� Parmar said of this 测别补谤91裸聊视频檚 roster of competing teams. 91裸聊视频泪迟 would be nice for us to see (Walnut Grove) but you 肠补苍91裸聊视频檛 take anything for granted.

91裸聊视频淲别 诲辞苍91裸聊视频檛 know exactly how good some of those other teams are, but you have to assume by their rankings that 迟丑别测91裸聊视频檙别 really good. Anything can happen and 迟丑补迟91裸聊视频檚 what makes it a great 迟辞耻谤苍补尘别苍迟.91裸聊视频�

As is the case every year, the Western Canada tournament marks the beginning of the home stretch and a springboard for the Owls, who will be looking to defend their B.C. 4A boys provincial title in March.

91裸聊视频淭丑别 goal is to get better every possession, progress throughout the week and be a better team when 颈迟91裸聊视频檚 辞惫别谤,91裸聊视频� he said. 91裸聊视频淗辞辫别蹿耻濒濒测 it will prepare us well for 飞丑补迟91裸聊视频檚 to 肠辞尘别.91裸聊视频�

Full tournament passes are $10 for students, $20 for adults and $75 for courtside seats.
