On March 20, USA Hockey announced the revision of its national player development plans for 2020 due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic as detailed below.

• USA Hockey has canceled the 2020 Boys Select 15 National Camp (2005 birth year)
• USA Hockey has canceled the 2020 Girls 15 National Camp (2005 birth year)
• USA Hockey has canceled the 2020 Girls 16/17 National Camp (2003/2004 birth years)

  • The Boys Select 17 National Camp is tentatively set for June 24 – July 1, 2020 in Amherst, New York. The U.S. Under-18 Men’s Select Team will be selected from the camp set to compete in the 2020 Hlinka Gretzky Cup, in August. Player invitations for this camp will be extended by June 1.
  • The Boys Select 16 National Camp is tentatively set for July 7-13, 2020, in Amherst, New York. The U.S. Under-17 Men’s Select Team will be selected from the camp set to compete in the 2020 Five Nations Tournament, in August. Player invitations for this camp will be extended by June 8.
  • The Girls Under-18 Select National Camp is tentatively set for July 15-21, 2020, in St. Cloud, Minnesota. Approximately 30 players will be selected from this camp to participate in the 2020 Under-18 National Team Festival, in August. Player invitations for this camp will be extended by June 1.

The decision to revise the plans for the national player development camps has caused the Michigan Amateur Hockey Association to revise their plans for upcoming events as well. For Michigan, this means that:

Youth District Camps for birth years 2003 - 2006 in Dearborn, Lansing, and Marquette are all officially cancelled for this year. The Midget Festival (birth years 2003 & 2004) in Taylor May 15-17 is officially cancelled.

The Girls PDC scheduled for Grand Rapids April 17-19 is also cancelled. 

All bids for the National Camp will be At-Large bids, and will come directly from the National office.

Finally, the Team Michigan tryouts are cancelled as well, now that the CCM NIT has been officially cancelled. 

Refunds will be processed for all participants that were preregistered. Refunds will be issued to the credit card used to pay for the registration. Please do not try to dispute any charges as this will only slow the refund process.

NOTES: The Bantam Camps for birth years 2005 & 2006 to be held in June at Lake Superior State University are tentatively on hold. If these proceed at some point, dates may change, the format maybe altered, and the process to determine attendees may be modified. 

MAHA will continue to post updates as they become available on MAHA.org
