The Americans are the defending Canada Cup champions and bring a very balanced team to the 2018 Canada Cup. Nine of their twelve team members have Paralympic experience led by 2016 Canada Cup MVP Chuck Aoki. Look for the Americans to spread out their attack and share the ball as they aim to claim a sixth Canada Cup.
History at the Canada Cup
The United States have competed at 5 Canada Cups and have won all five, only losing one match during that time.
