Rookie Camp is a great opportunity for young players to be introduced to hockey in a fun, relaxed, supportive environment.
This FREE program is open to all potential Eden Prairie Mite/8U players (Kindergarten through 3rd Grade), along with Eden Prairie pre-schoolers who will be 4 years old by the start of Rookie Camp. If you are a non-Eden Prairie resident, there is a cost of $125.00 listed in the registration.
Rookie Camp is typically once a week on Sundays.
If you would like more information about our FREE Rookie Camp sessions being offered for 2024-2025, please click on the link below to request more information.
This program is for NEW players only. Currently registered and/or previous Mite/8U players are not eligible for Rookie Camp, including helping siblings on the ice. Thank you for your help in keeping the focus on beginning skaters and those trying hockey for the first time!
Click here to submit equipment requests. Due to limited supply, there are no guarantees that equipment will be available. You will be contacted within a week of your request with information and availability. EPHA does not provide the following items: neck guard, mouth guard, velcro shorts and/or sock tape (to hold up socks). Please provide these additional items.
First impressions are everything right? To ensure that your skater has a great first experience, preparation is key. All Rookie Camp participants must come prepared with all required equipment for safety and success on the ice.
