Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Ice Crew and the Power Players?
The Power Players are a high-energy promotional team that assist the Ducks in-game entertainment presentation during home games and promote the Ducks at community events. Some of the Power Players ice skate with the Ice Crew during home games, but it is not a requirement.
The Ice Crew is a team of skilled ice skaters who clean the ice surface during media time-outs and assist with on-ice promotions during Ducks home games. Occasionally the Ice Crew assist/ interact with fans for arena wide giveaways but do not participate in community events.

Is skating a requirement to be a Power Player?
No, we have Power Players that never skate or go on the ice during games.
If you are not interested in working on the ice during games, you can join us for the promotions part of the audition process that will take place at Great Park on July 20th at Noon.
What do the Power Players do during games?
We have two specific jobs for the Power Players on gameday. We have Power Players that work on the ice and Power Players that work off the ice. The Power Players that work on the ice are required to ice skate and work with the Ice Crew to clean the ice surface during media time-outs and assist with on-ice promotions. The Power Players that work off the ice interact with fans, assist with promotions on camera, pump up the crowd and preform choreographed dances.
