James Zazula Campbell '24 Recruiting Profile

Update May 2024..

My goal is still the same. I plan on taking a year after graduation to play jr hockey, hopefully BCHL. I will aim for starting school in September of 2025. This has been a crazy year with so much going on, that I don't feel I would be completely ready mentally to start school September 2024. Although getting it going and over with also has its appeal. Summer of 2024 I will be playing first for Team Canada U18 Ball Hockey in Slovakia. I come home for a couple of weeks and then will be playing for Team BC U19 Ball Hockey in Saskatoon. 

My goal is to get an education in Sports Medicine and play the sport I love for as long as I can while doing it. I am consistent on and off the ice and a quiet leader amongst my peers. 

Summer of 2023, I was invited to rookie camp with Coquitlam Express (BCHL) and made main camp. Unfortunately, I did not make the final cut. I did have a few solid offers to play Junior B, which is now Junior A, but thought it was best I stay with my current team where I will continue to get 5 ice times and week, daily gym and full school.
