EVENT DETAILS
The Prime Hockey Expo (PHE) is an invite-only, individual-entry showcase featuring the top minor hockey players across Western Canada. This exclusive event will only be offered to 100 of the top players in each age group from Western Canada (approximately 34 players from British Columbia, 34 from Alberta, 17 from Saskatchewan, and 17 from MB).
Our goal for the EXPO event is to provide each participant with significant exposure to coaches and scouts at the next level (respective to their age) in an intimate and highly competitive setting.
Participants will benefit by exposure to scouts at either the Bantam/Prep Academy (9-13-year-olds) or Junior level (14 year-olds), in addition to being evaluated by our own scouting staff in consideration for exclusive Prime Hockey programming such as the World Selects Invitational events in Philadelphia and Europe (ages U12 – U15), the HHOF Series events (ages U9 to U14), the Hockey Hall of Fame Future Legends (U12) tournament and more.
The event follows a similar format to Hockey Canada’s U17 selection camp, where players are divided onto *6 teams with rosters comprised of players from each of the western provinces. In doing so, we also make every effort to ensure the teams are as evenly balanced as possible.
If you have not been invited but wish to be considered for the PHE, please submit an inquiry below.
