DETROIT – The Detroit Red Wings today released the schedule for their 2015 Development Camp, which will be held at Centre Ice Arena in Traverse City, Mich., from July 3-7. The camp kicks off on Friday, July 3 and features on-ice and off-ice workouts each day, including scrimmages on Saturday, July 4 and Tuesday, July 7. The camp roster will be released following the 2015 NHL Entry Draft, held on Friday, June 26 and Saturday, June 27 in Sunrise, Fla.
The camp will be split into two sides, Team Red and Team White, and will feature daily on-ice instruction skill development from a team of coaches, led by new Grand Rapids Griffins head coach Todd Nelson. Players will also take part in daily off-ice workouts and attend classes about being a professional hockey player on and off the ice, while receiving feedback from Red Wings coaches and management. This year, camp attendees will connect with the community during Traverse City’s National Cherry Festival by signing autographs for fans on Sunday, July 5, starting at 6:00 p.m.
Centre Ice Arena has annually hosted Red Wings events since 1997, including the summer development camp and an NHL prospect tournament that has expanded to eight teams, held in September before Detroit’s main training camp. All practices are open to the public. Tickets are available in-person only at Centre Ice Arena for $5 per day on each day of the event. Centre Ice Arena is located at 1600 Chartwell Drive in Traverse City, Mich.
