All sessions of the team's 2021 development camp are open to the public and media members. Sessions will take place at either Centennial Sportsplex or Ford Ice Center Bellevue. Please note that as a building owned and operated by the city, masks are mandatory and must be worn at all times at Centennial Sportsplex. Masks are recommended for all visitors at Ford Ice Center Bellevue.
The purpose of the camp is to educate and direct players in their pro development and conditioning programs. The week's events will be headed up by Predators Director of Player Development/Milwaukee Admirals GM Scott Nichol and Strength and Conditioning Coach David Good, with assistance from the rest of the Predators' and Admirals' coaching and hockey operations staffs. The training itinerary features a variety of on- and off-ice testing, dry-land activities and workouts, on-ice fundamentals work, video sessions, media and nutrition education and team-building activities. The prospects will also receive instruction on training principles such as sport-specific power and strength enhancement, flexibility and off-ice conditioning.
