Main Camp is Coming Up

Main camp for the Bismarck Bobcats is from August 6th-8th in Bismarck, ND. I have been thinking about this all summer, and I am so excited to get up there and play. I feel confident in myself because I know I have made a few big strides this summer in making myself a better hockey player. I've gained weight and I can tell a difference in my skating already because I am a lot stronger than I was at the start of the summer. I know this camp will be much more competitive than the camp in Denver; it is made up of the best players from each regional camp, their tenders (I am one of their tendered players), draft picks, and returning veterans. But I'm ready. A little nervous. A little nervous is good, though, because it makes me think about what I have to do and keeps my emotions down to earth. I don't know what to expect from the camp, but I can expect to show up in the best shape and with the best mindset I can have to give myself the best possible chance of becoming a Bobcat. After this tryout, the Bobcats will release their roster, and I hope to be one of the 23 players they pick. I know I say this in almost every post, but I can't help it: I can't wait for August 6th.
