Utah Mammoth making good on goal to expand youth hockey

The Utah Mammoth are making good on a goal to bring hockey to more kids across the state. They’re holding a youth camp this week in Riverdale, Weber County; it’s one of many the team is rotating in different cities year-round, teaching kids the sport. The Utah Mammoth street hockey clinic on Tuesday in Riverdale is teaching kids hockey drills and skills, and kids got some real-time playing against each other. The Riverdale camp is for 3rd to 6th graders who pay to play. Kids keep their hockey stick and jersey and get tickets to a game, but there are a lot of different versions of these Mammoth camps across the state – some are free, some are on the ice, some you even get to keep all the hockey pads and skates. A couple of kids told KSL why they were excited to be there.
