THE FEW, THE PROUD, THE SELECTED
Manitoba's Only International Youth Champion Football Team Established in 2015
Where Excellence Meets Global Competition. Our athletes don't just play the game, they dominate it on the international stage, proudly representing Manitoba with unmatched skill, heart, and determination. This is where champions are made.
POST-SEASON TRAVEL FOOTBALL
Two months. In. Out. Done.
The Manitoba Selects Post-Season Program is an action-packed, two-month travel development program for American tackle football players looking for more — more reps, more competition, more exposure. Provincial. Interprovincial. International.
November and December build toward competition in January. No long season, no slow build — just focused training and real competition for athletes who aren't done yet.
As the CFL continues adjusting its rules closer to the American game, Manitoba Selects is preparing our athletes for that shift as well — developing players who are ready for football as it's actually played, and where it's heading.
THE MANITOBA SELECTS PRO EXPERIENCE
Manitoba Selects provides athletes with opportunities to grow both on and off the field.
Throughout the program, players participate in:
- Structured team training and development
- National and international tournament competition
- Travel experiences that expose athletes to new football environments
This experience helps athletes develop confidence, teamwork, leadership, and resilience while competing against programs outside of Manitoba.
AGE CATEGORIES & REGISTRATION
The Manitoba Selects Post-Season Program is open to athletes in the following age divisions:
10U Atom Division — Athletes age 10 and under
12U Pee-Wee Division — Athletes age 12 and under
(High School Division offered based on demand and team interest)
High school athletes in the program also gain access to the PX Network, giving them the tools to build a recruiting profile and get in front of coaches across Canada and the U.S. — support Manitoba Selects athletes haven't had access to in this way before.
Athletes come from all across Manitoba — and beyond. We've welcomed players from as far as Ontario.
REQUIRED EQUIPMENT
Athletes are required to bring their own pads. Limited equipment is available for rent upon request.
TRAINING
Every Saturday, November and December. Football fundamentals, position development, speed and agility, team systems, and leadership — built to get athletes competition-ready fast.

PROGRAM INVESTMENT
All you have to pay is registration. Everything else, we help you fundraise.
That's the whole idea. Manitoba Selects families don't have to cover this program out of pocket — they fundraise it, and last year, 60% of our families did exactly that, covering their entire program cost through fundraising alone.
Step 1: Register — $350
This is your one payment. It secures your athlete's roster spot and unlocks access to our fundraising programs, starting immediately.
Step 2: Fundraise the Rest — For Free
Every program cost beyond registration has a fundraiser built specifically to cover it:
- Grey Cup Fundraiser → covers the Ready to Compete Package ($350)
- Wine Raffle → covers your Grand Forks Tournament ($350)
- T-Shirt Fundraiser / Sponsorship → covers your Moose Jaw Tournament ($350)
Run all three, and your athlete's entire Post-Season Program — gear, training, and competition — is covered beyond the $350 registration. No extra cost. No financial barrier. Just fundraise, and go compete.
What's Included, Once Fundraised
- Ready to Compete Package — jersey (top and bottom), workout shirt and shorts, hoodie, tracksuit, and travel bag
- At least one tournament required — Grand Forks (Jan 1–3, 2027) or Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan (Jan 7–10, 2027)
PARTICIPATION COMMITMENT
Because tournament entries, travel, and scheduling are secured months in advance, participation requires a full commitment once registered. Fees are non-prorated regardless of individual tournament attendance.
Families will complete:
- Participation agreement
- Credit card authorization form
- Media waiver
HOW TO PAY & GET IN TOUCH
Payments can be made by credit card, e-transfer, or through fundraising proceeds. Families register online first, then proceed through payment options from there.
