Ontario provincials championships use 2 person crews.

During the regular season, 2 person crews are the norm. However, in the boys regional playoffs (SWOSSAA) in our area, 3 person crews will be used. Adding to the confusion, SWOSSAA girls used only 2 person crews this year.

To prepare for the SWOSSAA games, our association has used 3 person crews for certain tournament games. We have three local officials who officiate at the collegiate level, and thus use 3 person mechanics regularly. But, the other guys need to be exposed to 3 person in some way, and tournament play is the way.
