Education

The Camrose Kodiaks are committed to helping players further their education through hockey, at the NCAA, CIS, and the ACAC level - providing the student-athlete every opportunity to pursue their goals. Camrose Kodiaks assistant Coach Miles Walsh is our education advisor. His background in education assists him in making sure our student-athletes are fully prepared and eligible to continue their education through hockey.

The Camrose Kodiaks actively promote all players to the numerous leagues so that they can achieve their educational goals.

In the Kodiaks short history, over 50 alumni have gone on to further their education through hockey - 30 of them to NCAA programs.

In keeping with the mandate of the Alberta Junior Hockey League, the Camrose Kodiaks promote education with hockey. All high school aged players are required to continue with their studies. Regular contact is made with the high schools to monitor a player's progress and attendance and standards must be maintained to remain eligible to play.

The University Of Alberta, Augustana Faculty is located in Camrose and offers an outstanding opportunity for post secondary education for the student-athlete. All players of any age are required to either continue their education or work in the community.

Scholarship opportunities exist for players through such donors as the Royal Bank, the Alberta Junior Hockey League, and Friends of the Alberta Junior Hockey League. Camrose local Andre Blanchette is the latest Kodiaks recipient of one such scholarship.

The Alberta Junior Hockey League has a full time Student-Athlete advisor who is committed to equiping players with relevant information and offering objective advice. Only when our players and their families are fully informed can they make confident and comfortable decisions. To contact the AJHL Student-Athlete advisor, click here.
