LONDON, ONTARIO:
Dale Hunter, Mark Hunter, Basil McRae, and the rest of the London
Knights organization are pleased to confirm that the Knights will be
submitting a bid to host the 2014 MasterCard Memorial Cup. The bid
documents are due on Monday, February 11, 2013, at which time the
Knights will be sharing with the Site Selection Committee their business
plan and theme in the event they are successful in being awarded the

Memorial Cup in 2005, culminating in a convincing 4-0 victory by the
Knights over Rimouski, marking the team’s first Memorial Cup
Championship in history. The Knights advanced to the Memorial Cup final
in 2012, but were defeated in overtime by the host team from
Shawinigan.
Details of the bid will be made public once all presentations have been made to the Site Selection Committee in April. For further inquiries about the London bid and the MasterCard Memorial Cup process, please contact Knights Governor Trevor Whiffen at (416) 931-2399.
