The event gives players and their families the chance to network and learn about what to expect playing the next level of hockey. By talking with coaches, organizers, and staff at any time throughout the weekend, we want everyone to obtain valuable information from each other. Not only will this event provide exposure for players, but it will also provide tangible testing results to use to market themselves to junior and college programs. Goaltenders will receive position-specific training from some of the top goaltending coaches in Canada, and players will be able to participate in a college-level practice run by multiple college coaches. Message from Showcase Director: At The RINK MJHL Exposure Showcase and Combine, we’re helping hockey players gather the information they need to make smart, educated decisions about their future as athletes and students. Winnipeg and Manitoba have many young talented hockey players. The Rink team and I intend on helping those players recognize and evaluate their options. We help hockey players get educated about the best possible route for them as individuals. What is right for one family, may not be the best fit for another. When it comes to making important decisions about futures in hockey and education, information and options help you make decisions that you and your family are confident in. Our event is geared not only towards giving players exposure to coaches, but providing players information about education and competition with other elite players. We hope you will make the decision to invest in yourself and your future as a collegiate hockey player by attending our showcase in 2016.
