YORKTON, SK — The Yorkton Kinsmen Maulers are now accepting registrations for the 2026 Spring Camp for 2009–2011‑born prospects.
Spring camp is an opportunity for athletes to showcase skills and compete against other top-level players in the province. It will be held at the Westland Insurance Arena at Yorkton’s Gallagher Centre from April 14th to 16th, 2026.
The Yorkton Kinsmen Maulers continue to build on the foundation of character, commitment and courage that was established by Saskatchewan Hockey Hall of Fame Coach, Allan Harrison. The Yorkton U18AAA Hockey program won the National Championship in 1993 and a Provincial Championship in 2003.
The Yorkton Kinsmen Maulers are proud to partner with the Yorkton Kinsmen, whose generous support helps provide opportunities for our players to develop both on and off the ice. Our players are very active in the community “Serving the Greatest Needs.”
The City of Yorkton provides everything players need to achieve their goals. We are dedicated to developing individual and team skills in pursuing excellence. Our coaching staff and
organization create an environment that fosters technical and tactical improvement and growth in fitness, nutrition, and sports psychology.
Players have year -round access to Mental Health Advocate D Jay McGrath and Mindset Performance Coach Jason Payne. We also partner with the City of Yorkton, Ignite Chiropractic, JannaLee Physio, Pumphouse Athletic Club, and CrossFit Novus to provide top-tier training facilities, personalized training plans, and responsive injury recovery support.
The Maulers have a valued partnership with Yorkton Regional High School, ensuring our players receive top -tier education and a smooth transition back to their home schools for Term 2 after the season. This partnership with YRHS also allows our players to earn two valuable high school credits through Hockey 10/20/30 and Personal Fitness 10/20/30 courses.
Throughout the season, we emphasize both physical and mental development. Playing for the Mauler family not only makes you a better hockey player but also a stronger individual.
Our scouting and coaching staff led by Head Coach Josh Garbutt will be evaluating each player’s abilities and potential to determine the best fit for our team that will be selected in just two months for the following season.
Our camp will also be attended by WHL and SJHL teams finalizing player evaluations for the upcoming WHL Draft and SJHL Draft. The goal for players attending spring camp is to sign a U18AAA Commitment for the upcoming season.
Players attending our camp within 160 km of Yorkton will also have the chance to be Affiliated Players (AP) with the Maulers. Our mission is to develop skilled, accomplished, and educated hockey players, so that they will be best prepared for Junior hockey, while enhancing each player’s confidence, respect, and love of the game.
We are committed to being the premier U18 AAA Hockey Program in the province of Saskatchewan, ensuring that our values, highly qualified coaching staff, volunteer association, and our commitment to player development, will support a focused, disciplined, and competitive organization.
Players are expected to arrive at camp in top physical condition, dressed in business casual attire (dress pants and a collared shirt) to reflect a AAA standard, and bring a positive attitude.
The registration fee is $199 e-transfer OR $215 via credit card, due at the time of registration.
