Forty-six of the country’s top women’s under-18 players have earned invites to the BFL National Women’s Under-18 Team Summer Development Camp as a chance to sharpen their skills before heading back to their collegiate and club teams for the 2021-2022 season.

This year’s camp holds a lot of meaning for the coaches, staff, and players as their seasons were disrupted by the global pandemic last year.

“After a year of cancellations, virtual calls, and online everything I am extremely excited to be reunited with this amazing staff and a chance to work with the top U18 females in the country,” said Weber.

Weber is the only Saskatchewan staff member represented on the roster. He is joined by a lone Saskatchewan player, Ava Metzger, from Moosomin, SK.
