Description
The Salt Lake Ghost Riders ID Camp is designed for serious prospects looking to earn a roster spot at the Tier 3 level for the upcoming season. This camp will serve as a primary evaluation and selection event for building the Salt Lake Ghost Riders USPHL Premier roster.
As part of the Center Ice Group development model, the Ghost Riders are affiliated with the Ventura Vikings (NCDC Tier 2). NCDC coaching staff from the Ventura Vikings will be in attendance, providing players with direct exposure and advancement opportunities within the Tier 2 pathway. In addition, ACHA Division II and III coaches from local universities will be present for players in their age-out year.
Participants will compete in a high-tempo, professional environment featuring structured practices, competitive gameplay, and direct evaluation from Ghost Riders coaching staff and Center Ice Group leadership.
Every session is designed to assess performance, compete level, and overall fit within the organization. This is not a development camp. This is where the roster is built. Players will be evaluated for immediate placement within the Ghost Riders program, with opportunities to advance within the Center Ice Group system, including the Ventura Vikings at the NCDC Tier 2 level.
The camp features a structured, game-focused format with 4 teams (72 total players), each rostered with 3 forward lines, 5 defensemen, and 2 goalies. All participants will receive a 3 ice hour guarantee.
