Your
decision on where you will play for the next 1-4 years
of your career will be a very crucial one for you as
a player and as a person. We have listed below some
of the considerations to be mindful of and some strong
reasons the Blizzard could be the right choice for you.
The community of The Pas offers educational opportunities
second to none in Western Canada for a Junior Hockey
player. Players still finishing their high school may
attend either Joe A. Ross or Margaret Barbour Collegiate.
The highly renown Keewatin Community College offers
12 different Post Secondary programs specializing in
technical and occupational course loads and is in the
process of expanding into a University College. 45 first
year University courses are also available through the
FYDE program at MBCI.
This season our club will play a 64 game schedule plus
exhibition and playoffs. We will practice on a daily
basis (4:00 pm to allow for school) and expect to have
over 100 practice sessions to further develop individual
and team skills. In addition we also have access to
a complete and modern weight facility in our arena which
will be used to fully compliment our off ice training
program.
We are very fortunate to be one of only a few clubs
in the MJHL to have a full time Head Coach to work with
our players. Not only will they work on team and player
development but also on player advancement as well.
In addition to our top quality staff the Blizzard also
have a Director of Hockey, Marketing Director, Trainer,
and Office Manager.
The Blizzard will be recruiting top quality players
who are committed to excellence. We want to continue
to present ourselves as a very hard working and enthusiastic
club. In return we will treat our players in a first
class way... in fact it is safe to say that the "Blizzard"
will be treated as well as any Junior team in Canada!!
Our club will be responsible for room and board, outer
equipment, player honorariums and all educational costs
while playing for our club. In addition we have budgeted
an individual player allocation for team sportswear.
We are very proud of establishing a college scholarship
fund for every graduating player.

to "Our Mission"
