Burnaby native Nicco Camazzola was among 60 players selected to attend the under-16 provincial male hockey camp by B.C. Hockey.
Camazzola, a 6-foot-1 defenceman from the Burnaby Winter Club Academy, was selected after participating in the U16 B.C. Cup last month in Salmon Arm.
Drafted in the fourth round, 78th overall, by the Vancouver Giants in the Western Hockey League’s bantam draft two weeks ago, Camazzola will be joined by nine of his fellow BWC academy teammates at the camp.
Also selected were goaltender Thomas Milic, defencemen Elias Carmichael and Marcus Taylor, and forwards Caedan Bankier, Keean Fisk, Rocco LaCarra, Chase Sandhu, Matthew Seminoff and Finlay Williams.
All are 15 years old except Fisk, LaCarra and Seminoff, who don’t turn 15 until later this year.
The B.C. U16 camp runs July 29 to Aug. 3 in Shawnigan Lake, training for the 2019 Canada Winter Games.
