Provincial champions will be crowned across Saskatchewan this weekend as high school football teams compete for titles in five classifications.

In the 1A six-a-side final, the Hafford Vikings and North Valley Eagles will meet for the sixth time in the championship game, and for the second year in a row.

Hafford punched its ticket with a 72-4 semifinal win over Lanigan, while North Valley got past Carrot River 63-38.

The Vikings have won all five previous meetings and will be looking for their eighth consecutive provincial title. That includes a 38-32 victory over North Valley in last year’s final. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. Saturday.

In the 2A six-a-side championship, the Clavet Cougars will host the Watrous Wildcats in a matchup between two familiar opponents.

Both teams have gone undefeated through the regular season and playoffs. Clavet advanced with a win over Wynyard, while Watrous is looking to get past the Cougars in a rematch of the 2023 and 2025 provincial finals. Clavet won the 2023 championship 46-40, while Watrous came away with the title last year.

Wynyard and Shellbrook will meet in the bronze medal game.

In nine-a-side action, the Melville Cobras will welcome the Lumsden Devils to the Snake Pit for Saturday’s provincial final.

Melville earned its first championship final appearance since 2003 with a 42-14 semifinal win over Tisdale. The Cobras will be looking for their first provincial title since 1992.

Lumsden, meanwhile, is aiming for back-to-back championships after shutting out Melfort 50-0 in the semifinals.

Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. in Melville.

In the 5A 12-a-side final, the Moose Jaw Central Cyclones will look to defend their provincial crown against the Saskatoon Bishop James Mahoney Saints.

Central advanced with a convincing 52-7 win over Regina Sheldon-Williams, while Bishop James Mahoney edged Prince Albert Carlton 14-12.

The Cyclones captured the title last season with a win over Regina Johnson. Saturday’s championship game goes at 1 p.m. in Saskatoon.

And in the 6A 12-a-side final, the Miller Marauders will meet the Holy Cross Crusaders in a rematch of last year’s championship.

Miller booked its spot with a 41-37 comeback victory over the Riffel Royals in the Regina city final. Holy Cross claimed the Saskatoon city title with a 40-7 win over St. Joseph’s.

The Crusaders defeated Miller 21-16 in last year’s provincial final and will look to repeat that result Saturday at Leibel Field. Kickoff is at 1 p.m.
