Showcase Camp & Tournament Team
Skill development and player promotion are
our top priority at the Elite Prospects Showcase & Development Team. Over the years we have developed relationships with many
Junior, OHL, NCAA and professional coaches and placed many of our players in their
programs.
Our players undergo intense on and off ice
training daily for 4 weeks. The training schedule is designed around individual skills
development. Our on-ice and off-ice training
staff are qualified, established coaches from
USport, OHL and Jr ‘A’ teams who are full-time
for the operation of this program.

EP Showcase Week
July 24 - 26, 2024
All players participating in our Development Camp are entered in our Showcase Week. This showcase tournament offers players real chances to be viewed, evaluated and receive offers in a small showcase setting. We ensure this by limiting our registration to individuals for a 6-8 team tournament.
The smaller showcase setting allows us to have understanding of each player's background and ambitions towards the upcoming season. We have one game at a time at one arena for Scouts and Coaches to few easily. Other tournaments which host 30 teams, and 500+ players and across multiple venues make it virtually impossible to be noticed out of the crowd. We take a different approach which has been successful for our camp in the past. .
Our showcase aims to provide exposure to all levels of hockey, from OHL, QMJHL, NAHL, Junior 'A' (OJHL/GMHL) and AAA Prep.
Divisions:
U20 Showcase (2004-2007)

Living & Billeting
Billet Families
Over the years, the team has been very fortunate to attract fantastic billets for all of our players. All potential billets are interviewed by the team and must submit an official police record check to qualify as billets. The team tries to find homes that will house two-three players in order to make the transition more comfortable for each new team member. Each player is responsible to pay their billet family on their 1st day of arrival. The billeting option is $1000 for the month which includes all living expenses such as rent, food, utilities, internet. The families try to include players as a member of the family and treat them as if their own child.
Hockey Homes
Players may be placed in own of our hockey homes for the summer camp. These homes have line-in staff as dorm dons, who will assist the players and provide supervision. These homes work as billet famlies would, providing housing, meals, utilities, internet, etc. at a rate of $1000 for the month.
Financial Obligations
Camp fees amount to CAD $2700+HST with all team fee payments discussed and arranged over phone or e-mail. Payment schedules over 2-3 months are commonly arranged to accomodate players. Tuitions must be paid in full prior to arriving at camp.
Billeting is optional during camp, and the players in the homestay program are responsible to look after their own billeting payment on the 1st day of arrival. Billeting is CAD $1000 per month paid directly to the billet family.
For import players, non-Canadian, insurance is recomended Manulife Financial and costs approximately CAD $120-140 for the duration of the summer camp. This insurance covers Covid-19.
