The OJS 30 Top Prospects for the upcoming 2010-2011 were all smiles this past weekend as packages were handed out for the Main Camp Conditioning Programme which starts July 5th. Included in each package is a Summer Membership to the Ben Franklin Superdome Athletic Training Facility along with 8 exclusive training sessions under the supervision of OJS Off-Ice Conditioning and Strength Coach Lorne Goldenberg. An instructional DVD and Manual along with Gary Roberts' Nutritional Tip Sheet were also included. Prospects also received four passes for Golf at both the eQuinelle Golf and Country Club and to the Thunderbird Golf Course. Prospects were encouraged to take their Dad's, Mom's and fellow prospects with an eye to thanking those family members who had sacrificed so much to get them this far and towards building team spirit.

There is no cost to the Prospects, however, their participation is mandatory.

After the success of the OJS Prospect's Camp this past weekend, the Off-Ice Programme is the first event of the Year-Round Hockey Development Initiative launched by the OJS this season.
