Six university women’s basketball teams are in Yellowknife for a tournament unlike anything the territorial capital has seen before. Watch it live using the links on this page.
Cabin Radio is the official media partner of the North of 60 Classic, which runs throughout the Thanksgiving weekend of 2026.
Teams from the University of Victoria, University of Lethbridge, University of Toronto, Lakehead University, Wilfrid Laurier University and Mount Saint Vincent University are taking part – including various athletes who represent homegrown NWT talent.
“It will be such a great opportunity,” said tournament organizer Janet Enge, who grew up in Yellowknife and now plays for the University of Toronto. “Not only to get our Northwest Territories athletes home and have a beautiful homecoming, but also to bring high level basketball culture up to the North.”
