Raider spring camp hailed a huge success
Twenty-five Prince Albert Raider prospects are home preparing for rookie camp.
They went through an intense two days of fitness testing, seminars and on ice workouts over the weekend. The camp started Friday afternoon in Prince Albert with tours of the dressing room and Carlton Comprehensive High School. It wrapped up in Saskatoon after the final on ice session at the University of Saskatchewan's Rutherford rink.
The camp was the first exposure to the Raider organization and life in the Western Hockey League for most, including fifth-round draft choice Luke Coleman.
“I think it's a really good organization,” said the Red Deer Bantam Rebel grad. “Some of the most important things I learned were really getting down to the techniques and really perfecting everything you can.”
