The time is almost here.

There are some excited people waiting to vote for their favourite in the Greatest Of All Time and we are nearing that moment when you get to choose the greatest NWT sports team of all time.

Let's clarify how things will go:

There will be one matchup per week -- NOT all eight match-ups at once. The matchups will be done in order of where they sit on the bracket with the first one being the 2014 world championship-winning NWT Rebels women's broomball team taking on the 2019 mixed curling squad of Jamie Koe, Kerry Galusha, David Aho and Megan Koehler in the classic David vs. Goliath contest of 1 vs. 16.

The 2014 edition of the NWT Rebels women's broomball team won the World Women's Broomball Championship that year and are the top seeds for the Greatest Of All Time bracket tournament. The champs are, front row from left, Denise Pyke, Grace Lau-a, Kyra Powder, Sarah Elsasser, Danielle Hawes and Terri-Lynn Locke-Setter; back row from left, Aki Iwase, Angela Love, Janelle James, Adriana Zibolenova, Orla Tobin, Jenny Crawford, Martha Goodman, Brenda Tittlemier and Tina Locke-Setter. photo courtesy of NWT Rebels
