Junior Knights

To help evaluate players abilities at this age level, the Junior Knights will participate in a comprehensive assessment of their skills and current abilities at a pre-season “All Mites Focus Camp” that will span six sessions throughout August. The assessment camp will be offered by the St. Jude Knights Hockey Club, and all participants must have USA Hockey membership and insurance in order to participate in the camp.

Directors and coaches will use the first session to place players into initial assessment groups and may redistribute players throughout the duration of the camp to ensure that players are appropriately challenged and playing with and against players of similar skill and experience levels. The coaches will assess each player’s core hockey skills such as skating, stops, turns, crossovers, and stickhandling throughout the camp. At the conclusion of the camp, players will attend a final assessment at Southwest Ice Arena for team placement on Tuesday, September 3rd at 5:30pm.

The "All Mites Focus and Assessment Camp" is offered by the St. Jude Knights Hockey Club and can be purchased through its website. The cost of the camp is $280 which includes the six camp sessions and the final placement fee included.

For those players wishing to only attend the placement session a fee of $100 will be assessed during registration. 

Please note that all participants in the Mite Focus & Assessment Camp MUST have USA Hockey Insurance.
