Chesapeake, VA (9/22/16)- The Hampton Roads Whalers are proud to announce Second Annual Hampton Roads Whalers Southern Showcase set to open on September 30 at the Chilled Ponds in Chesapeake, VA.

The USPHL Showcase Series allows for players to be seen multiple times in one weekend by a battery of scouts with all games happening under one roof. The slate of multiple games in three days provides a clear picture of not just a player’s skill on the ice, but also his conditioning. Also, due to the central location, players from teams outside the area are guaranteed ample time to recover from both the games and the travel to the rink.

The event will feature from the USPHL Elite South, USP3HL North, and USP3HL South Divisions. Teams participating from the Elite Division are the Hampton Roads Whalers, Carolina Eagles, Florida Eels, Palm Beach Hawks, Charlotte Rush, Tampa Bay Juniors, Atlanta Jr. Knights, Richmond Generals, and Potomac Patriots.

USP3HL South teams in attendance will be the Hampton Roads Whalers, Tampa Bay Juniors, Florida Jr. Blades, Palm Beach Hawks, Daytona Racers, Potomac Patriots, Carolina Eagles, Florida Eels, Richmond Generals, Atlanta Jr. Knights, and Charlotte Rush.

Joining the field from the USP3HL North are the Junior Bruins, Islanders Hockey Club, and Jersey Shore Whalers.

“The USPHL Southern Divisions continue to grow in both talent and competitive play every year,” stated Whalers Executive Director Brad Jones. “The Hampton Roads Whalers Showcase will highlight that high-level talent; giving players a fun weekend of competitive play, while exposing them to scouts from around the country.”

Tickets will be sold at Chilled Ponds and all games will be broadcast on FastHockey.com. For more information, please visit ww.whalernation.com and USPHL.com.
