The USA Hockey Boys National 16 Player Development Camp took place July 9-15, 2024, at The Northtown Center in Amherst, New York. This camp was comprised of male players who are registered USA Hockey players (2023-24) and born in the year 2008. 

The players experienced a competitive, age-specific environment with on-ice training (drills, small area games, competitions, etc.) and off-ice training (strength & conditioning, team building, mental skills, nutrition, classroom, etc.) The Boys National 16 Camp format at this camp creates an extremely competitive atmosphere with a grueling week of training and competition meant to improve and showcase our players but it is not a tournament. 

Players from the USA Hockey Boys 16 Camp will be evaluated and chosen to play for the Under-17 Select Team playing in an international competition, the Five Nations Tournament, which takes place August 14-18, 2024 in Piešťany, Slovakia.
