The sexual assault case against five former Canadian World Junior hockey players was addressed briefly in court Tuesday.

The lawyers representing the players dealt with the matter briefly via zoom.

A judge instructed them to file pre-trial motions before October 23.

The five players were charged in connection with an incident at a London, Ont. hotel room involving a woman in the summer of 2018.

The case is expected to be back in assignment court in London on May 14.

A trial date has not yet been set.
