Buffalo State first-year head coach Candice Moxley is in Calgary, Alberta serving as the video coach for Hockey Canada’s Women’s National Development Team.
Forty players are currently attending Canada’s National Women’s Development Team selection camp and will be split into two teams, which will participate in several practices and intrasquad games, as well as off-ice dryland training, fitness testing and high performance classroom sessions.
Based on evaluations and performances at the selection camp, Hockey Canada will choose 13 development team players to join the 27 senior team players who will centralize with Canada’s National Women’s Team in Calgary for training to prepare for the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, Russia. The 40 players will be split into Red and White teams, which will compete against each other in a three-game series set for Aug. 19-24 at the Markin MacPhail Centre.
Moxley will assist head coach Tim Bothwell throughout the selection process.
