Things will get underway at the Northern Lights Palace in Melfort on Friday, March 6 and game two will take place the next night. The series will then shift to Estevan for games three and four on Tuesday, March 10 and Wednesday, March 11. Then, if necessary, the teams will rotate hosting games five, six, and seven with the deciding seventh being in Melfort if needed.
