With a tough regular season now it in the rear-view, the Midget 'AAA' 57's have switched their focus to provincials.

Beginning on Friday, the 57's will play host to the Midget 'AA' Tier 1 Provincial Championship.

The tournament features eight teams split into two pools of four.

Swift Current has been placed into Pool A, along with the Regina Buffalos, Moose Jaw Canucks and Midwest Diamondbacks.

The 57's will play their first game at 12:30pm Friday against the Diamondbacks at Kinsmen Park.

The contest will be their only game on Friday, as they will round out their 'pool' schedule with two games Saturday.

Swift Current will battle the Regina Buffalos at 12:00pm Saturday at Kinsmen Park, before taking on Moose Jaw under the lights at Mitchell Field, beginning at 8:00pm.

Also competing in the tournament and taking part in Pool B are the Lumsden Cubs, Regina Blue Jays, Parkland Expos and Northwest Prairie Pirates.

The top two teams in each pool will cross-over to form the two semi-finals, which will take place on Sunday.

If any tie-breakers are necessary, the gold medal game will be played at 3:30pm on Sunday. Should tie-breakers not be needed, the championship game will start at 1:00pm.
