The Swift Current Midget AAA Home Hardware Legionnaries are holding their spring camp this weekend.

After Head Coach Jason Johns was relieved of his duties, Assistant Coach Brad Woods says the rest of the staff still felt it was important to step up and run the spring camp.

He adds it is a smaller than usual "invitation only" camp; "We felt it was important that we invited kids that had a legitimate chance of being in that fall camp and had a legitimate chance to play next year.

Registration and the first on ice session is tonight at the Credit Union iPlex.

What are the Legionnaires looking for?

"The two things that are pretty important at the AAA level is just the ability to skate. The speed of the AAA game is faster, things happen quicker, so just being able to play at that pace. The strength as well. A 15-year-old kid could potentially be playing against 17-year-olds. For those younger guys to make it they've got to show that they've got the strength and conditioning to play at that level."

Camp starts tonight and runs until Sunday afternoon.
