The Crazy Eights Hockey Camp is coming to the Royal Business Systems Ice Center this summer. The all-girls, three-day camp for 7-13 year old girls is scheduled for July 11-13 at the Royal Ice Center.

The goal of Crazy Eights is to give female hockey players the tools they need to go on to become successful college athletes. The all-female staff is comprised of D1 and D3 coaches and players whose stories will inspire the next generation of female college hockey players.

The camp includes both on-ice and off-ice training along with classroom instruction. On-ice sessions cover a wide range of skating and puck handling skills, while classroom sessions break down positioning and the rules of hockey. Special guests will speak on anything from nutrition to recruiting process to playing experience. Attendees will develop player skills while learning lessons that will help them through all facets of life.
