Among the prospects at camp are 2024 first round pick Tyden Lafournaise, second rounder Reid Soper, and Kai Anderson, who the Hurricanes acquired in a trade with Vancouver last season.

Soper says he is very excited to get his first taste of the WHL.

The public is invited to watch the training sessions for free and are encouraged to bring a donation of a non-perishable food item for the Lethbridge Food Bank and Interfaith Food Bank.
