Two boys from Humboldt are beginning their quest for a national championship in soccer on Thursday.

Finlay Hart and Kazley Natlazo are playing for the Under-17 Saskatoon North team that won provincials in July.

Held in Fredericton, New Brunswick, they play their first of four round robin games Thursday against Mississauga.

From there, they take on the Calgary Hurricanes on Friday, Halifax on Saturday, and Sherbrooke on Sunday to conclude the round robin.

Playoffs will take place on Monday.

Other teams at the tournament are Winnipeg, Coquitlam, Fundy, St. John's and Charlottetown.
