Regional Camps for the Male Under 15 Sask First Program began in November with the opportunity for all hockey players in this category to get a chance to participate.
From there the top 160 players were chosen to take place in the Sask First Tournament in Regina, and the top 80 were invited to participate in a second tournament that will be held in February.
Six of Martensville’s own will be participating in this next step of the Sask First Male Under-15 program, which will be taking place from February 16-18 in Balgonie, Sk. Congratulations to Calder Hamilton, Ramy Borowsky, Blake Chorney, Ryder Hagel, Cruz Harrison and Dade Wotherspoon.
“This process ensures all players not only have the opportunity to compete with peers, but receive significant exposures as all Sask First events are highly attended by scouts from a variety of elite leagues. In addition, the Sask First Program is a gateway to Hockey Canada’s High Performance Program, which includes their National Teams such as the World Juniors,” the hockeysask.ca website explains. This program was created to ensure players, coaches and officials have the opportunity for development both on and off the ice and offers an in depth developmental program for all participating.
