RED DEER – Thirty volunteers have been selected to lead the six teams competing at the 2025 Alberta Challenge.
The staffing complement for each team includes a director of operations, head coach, mentor coach, two assistant coaches, apprentice coach and therapist. The Alberta Challenge is a core Hockey Alberta Female Development program that allows athletes, staff and on-ice officials an opportunity for growth for the next step in their hockey journey.
The Alberta Challenge is hosted at the Gary W. Harris Canada Games Centre in Red Deer from April 30-May 4. The province is divided into North and South regions, with three teams selected from each region. Female athletes born in 2010 and 2011, playing in a Hockey Canada-sanctioned program, are eligible to try out.
Regional Camp registration opens on January 13. Regional camps will take place April 4-6 in Cochrane and Beaumont.
Listing of the director of operations and therapists will be announced closer to the Alberta Challenge.
