UPlay Blue will push the pace, and have the weapons to do so. If you’re not careful, they will blow you out. The team has been tested against the best programs in America, and chemistry has been picking up. Will it be enough to claim the title?
Marcus Masters, David Penny, Milan Roknic, Ishan Khan, Isaiah Parkinson, Tre Edwards and the list goes on.
GTA Guardsmen
Well coached, tough, structured group with good depth. The GTA Guardsmen return to CNIT following a 4th place finish last year. Bring contributions from across the board, with Jalen Mason and Tyler Sagl leading the way.
Peel Elite

After going undefeated in the CYBL’s second division and winning the title comfortably, this squad is looking to test themselves against top-notch competition. Daniel Thompson, David Muenkat, Bishop Wyse and the crew carry a major chip on their shoulder, and they play like it.

Niagara Selects
The Selects will have home court advantage and should bring in strong crowd support–Coach Etzio has been working the boys for months and should be prepared for battle. Tomas DiDomenico, Stefan Miljenovic, and Steve Lamay got the goods.
3WYA
Guard driven squad, that can rock with the best of them on the perimeter and will have to step up in that regard due to lack of size. Demeric Mercer, Lorenzo Downey, Adam Lambert, Kendall will lead the way.
Scarborough Blues
SBA enters the CNIT for the first time, and are definitely flying under the radar–this team has picked up quality victories over the year and can bang with the best of them. Time will tell how deep these boys can go.
Mississauga Monarchs
New developed squad, we will not know what to expect from the Monarchs. Time will tell. #GameSpeaks
BTB Elite
Amir Gholizadeh is an impact player for this squad and BTB Elite will go as far as he takes them; a 6`4 playmaking guard wit ha lot of promise.
Kingston Impact
This Kingston Impact team is highly spoken off within the region, saying it could be the most talented group out of Kingston, ON in a decade.
