The Fellowship of Christian Athletes Hockey Group is hosting the 15th Annual “Team FCA Select Camp”.  Traditionally, this event is memorial weekend but this year we have moved it to the following weekend. The camp will be located at the Liberty University's LaHaye Ice Center in Lynchburg, Virginia.

The camp is open to all male players between the ages of 16 and 20 years old (2006-2009), from both the United States and Canada. The number of participants is limited to 102 so please apply as early as possible. Campers will have the opportunity to receive instruction, practice, and compete over the 4 day period (4 games per player).

Players will be divided into 2-4 teams, with 2-3 coaches per team. Coaching staffs will consist of Professional, NCAA Division 1 and 3 head and assistant coaches, preparatory coaches, and junior (USHL, NAHL, and NCDC) and high school coaches. Players from Tier 1, 2 and 3 junior teams as well as high school and midget programs will be represented. This weekend will be an awesome time of spiritual growth, hockey, and making new friends from around the country. You don’t want to miss this amazing experience.

For any parents who will be joining us for the camp, there will be several events for parents to include all on-ice sessions, a chapel, and an advisory session.
