Winnipeg Jets Announce 2026 Development Camp Schedule
The Winnipeg Jets have revealed the timetable for their 2026 development camp, a week‑long showcase that will run from June 29 through July 3 at the Hockey for All Centre in Winnipeg.
The camp kicks off with off‑ice testing on June 29, featuring a media availability scheduled for noon, giving fans and journalists a first look at the prospects who will be on the ice later in the week.
Practice sessions get underway the following morning, June 30, at 9:30 a.m., and continue throughout the week, with each session open to the public, allowing supporters to watch the next generation of talent in action.
While the on‑ice work will be the centerpiece, the organization has emphasized that the full roster of participants will be announced after this weekend’s NHL Draft, adding an extra layer of anticipation to the event.
Evaluating the Next Generation
Beyond the drills, the camp serves as a crucial evaluation period for the coaching staff, who will use the data gathered from off‑ice testing alongside on‑ice performances to shape the final player pool.
The Jets’ development camp has become a staple of the franchise’s summer calendar, drawing attention from scouts, analysts and the local hockey community, all eager to see how the upcoming talent fits into the team’s long‑term vision.
