PLAYER DEVELOPMENT CAMPS

​What is the State of Oregon Player Development Camp?
The emphasis of the Oregon Player Development Camp is on player development so all players (within designated birth years) are invited to attend. The camp is held each year in late January. During the camp, players participate in a combination of dryland and on ice exercises, drills and small area games. Evaluators observe all players and make recommendations for eligible players to advance to USAH Pacific District and Regional development camps. Players who will turn 14, 15, 16 or 17 in the upcoming USA Hockey calendar year are eligible to advance. Players who will turn 13 in the upcoming season are welcome to participate but will not be eligible to advance until the following year.
