Cromie Memorial Cup

The Cromie Memorial Cup, emblematic of the Male Midget AAA Amateur Hockey Championship in British Columbia, was donated by Don Cromie in memory of his late father Robert J. Cromie.  The Cromie family ran the Vancouver Sun for much of the 1900s, starting in 1917 when Robert rescued the paper from bankruptcy.  He ran the paper until his death in 1936, after which his sons Don, Peter and Samuel took over the family business.  As Vice President, Don sold the newspaper in 1964.  The Cromie family left a legend in Vancouver that transcended their era.https://www.bchockey.net/Leagues/Awards.aspx

a The Giants earned an automatic bye into the Telus Cup because the Red Deer Optimist Rebels were hosting the tournament
==Telus Cup==
The Vancouver North West Giants (2007, 2011) and Okanagan Rockets (2014) are the only teams to have represented the league at the Telus Cup. Upon the Giants' winning the BC MML championship in 2007, a regional final with the AMHL was not necessary as Red Deer was hosting the Telus Cup that year. The Giants finished fourth in the Telus Cup tournament in 2007 before returning four years later; they again finished fourth in 2011. The 2014 Rockets, meanwhile, won the bronze medal.
Prior to the inauguration of the BC MML, the national midget championship was held in British Columbia twice – hosted by Kelowna in 1996 and Prince George in 2001. The Burnaby Winter Club Travellers represent the only B.C. team to win the national championship, defeating the Gouverneurs de Ste-Foy from Quebec in 1982, as well as winning bronze in 1980.
