GREAT FALLS, Mont., July 20, 2015 —We are happy to announce that the Great Falls Americans Hockey Team will be holding the 2nd Annual GFA Pre-Season Youth Skills Camp on September 7th-10th at the Great Falls Ice Plex.
Last year in its first season the GFA Youth Skills camp was extremely successful with over 35 players attending the camp throughout the course of the week from many different age groups.
This year we hope to build off that success with a well structured curriculum designed to help players prepare for a successful 2015-16 youth season.
Camp will be ran by Head Coach Jeff Heimel, members of the Americans staff, and of course the new Junior players looking to defend their 2014-15 Frontier Division Championship!
Similar to last year the camp will consist of a younger group and an older group. Each group will skate one 75 minute session per evening for the duration of the camp.
Camp Schedule is as follows:
Monday September 7th
Group A (Younger Group) 5:30PM-6:45PM
Group B (Older Group) 7:00PM-8:15PM
Tuesday September 8th
Group A (Younger Group) 5:30PM-6:45PM
Group B (Older Group) 7:00PM-8:15PM

Thursday September 10th
