This is the second year in a row that Hockey PEI has been chosen to send a representative to this IIHF camp. Last season Morgan Ellis of East Bideford represented Hockey PEI.
The IIHF Youth Hockey Development Camp is a once in a lifetime opportunity says Rob Newson, Executive Director for Hockey PEI. "This camp is a cultural experience as much as it is a hockey experience. The selected player will be given a chance to travel abroad to play the game she loves in an international atmosphere. This will not only expose the player to international competition but will also give her a chance to interact and learn from people all over the world."
