The inaugural ATB Alberta Peewee Prospects Cup will be the start of the Hockey Alberta Development program and will be held in off years of the Alberta Winter Games. For the 2015 event, male athletes born in 2002 are eligible.
“The Peewee Prospects Cup program is designed to give second-year peewees the opportunity to show their skills, and receive top-level instruction and assessment” said Dustin Moore, Hockey Alberta coordinator for Team Alberta. “But it is not just the players who will benefit from this new program. Coaches and trainers, as well as volunteers interested in working as directors of operations, will also gain valuable experience working in a competitive atmosphere.”
The ATB Prospects Cup program begins with four regional camps, April 17-19, 2015. The camps will be held in Edmonton, Calgary, Stony Plain (for northern Alberta players), and Olds (for southern Alberta players). Two teams (a total of 40 players, along with coaches and trainers) will be selected at each camp to participate in the eight-team Prospects Cup tournament in Olds on May 7-10, 2015.
