Edmonton, Alta. - The Edmonton Oil Kings have announced their four-game schedule for the Pre-Season Fueled by the Federation of Alberta Gas Co-ops.

The Oil Kings will once again take their Pre-Season games to Northern Alberta communities after two extremely successful years going to the communities of Grande Cache, Enoch Cree Nation, Edson, and Morinville.

The Pre-Season will begin this year in Hinton, Alta. as the Oil Kings will meet up with the Prince George Cougars for a pair of games on Friday, September 5, and Sunday, September 7 at the Dr. Duncan Murray Recreation Centre.
