OFSAA Announces Classifications; AAA to be 951+

The other major announcement from last week's OFSAA AGM was the determination of the classifications for next season.

As you (likely) know, AAAA is being eliminated and CWOSSA/OFSAA are going back to a three-tier (A, AA, AAA) model.

The divisions are as follows:
A:  1-500
AA:  501-950
AAA:  951+

Without question, the AAA division is going to be extremely competitive.  Based upon this year's numbers, 29 schools (yes, 29!) would be in the AAA division next year.

In fact, the only schools that would drop from AAA to AA (again, based on this year's numbers) would be Guelph St. James and Orangeville Westside.  The other 14 schools would merge with the 15 AAAA schools to form the division.

As I mentioned in a previous post, it would be great to see an "NCAA-style conference tournament" for the CWOSSA championship; with the talent level in the region, it would be great to see a showcase event to celebrate it.
