The 2014 Toronto World Cup
The Toronto World Cup in still a few weeks away, but already over 80 athletes have registered. 
Canada’s first World Cup was in 2011, it was held in Canmore. Under temporary outdoor canopies, athletes competed under snowy skies in down jackets and used hand warmers. It was a perfect welcome-to-Canada debut for the event. Read about it here.
The second World Cup was held last year in Toronto (Hamilton). Gripped’s Andre Cheuk covered the event, see here for an excellent write-up on the finals.
