The fourth annual Anaheim Ducks West Coast Prospects Camp is set for this Friday through Sunday at Anaheim ICE.
The invitation-only camp will be attended by more than 120 youth hockey players (ages 13-17), who will showcase their skills before coaches from more than 20 college and major junior programs. Among several Southern Californians ranked in the upcoming 2010 NHL Entry Draft, two attended the 2008 camp: RW Beau Bennett, a native of Gardena and ranked 32nd heading into the 2010 draft, and D Taylor Aronson, a native of Placentia and ranked 88th.
All participants are Southern California natives, stretching as far south as San Diego and as far north as Santa Barbara. Games begin at Anaheim ICE on Friday at 3 p.m. and are free of charge to the general public. A total of 16 games will be played throughout the weekend, concluding on Sunday at 10:30 a.m.
