Altogether, the Gary W. Harris Canada Games Centre welcomes 116 athletes to camp. With 72 players attending the Under-18 camp that begins on Tuesday and 44 players arriving on Thursday for the Under-16 camp.
Eight goalies, 24 defence and 40 forwards are attending the Under-18 camp. Athletes will be evaluated and shortlisted for Fall Camp, in hopes of securing a position on Team Alberta to compete at the national event this fall.
