What Types of Hockey Tournaments and Camps Does Canadian Hockey Enterprises Offer?

Updated

Canadian Hockey Enterprises (chehockey.com) runs hockey tournaments and camps across North America for men, women, boys, and girls, plus a separate development program called CHE Academy. The tournaments are organized by participant group — men's, women's, boys', and girls' — while camps split into youth camps and a dedicated Just for Girls program. CHE Academy is a distinct offering for elite athletes rather than a tournament or general camp.

Tournament Categories

CHE organizes its tournaments into four groups, each with its own set of destinations:

Category What CHE says about it
Men's tournaments Positioned as a "be treated like a pro" weekend experience, with 750+ teams across destinations
Women's tournaments Teams from across North America and beyond, in a range of tournament destinations
Boys' tournaments 350+ teams from Canada, the USA, and Europe, with destinations including Lake Placid, Banff, and Montreal
Girls' tournaments Combines hockey with team bonding and travel, with destinations from Montreal to Lake Placid

The common thread is the tournament format: a weekend event built around competition plus time with teammates. If you're choosing between categories, the deciding factor is simply which group you're registering a team for — the structure and destination options differ by category, and the destination lists are the practical place to start.

Camp Options

CHE offers two camp tracks:

  • Boys & girls hockey camps — youth players work on skating, shooting, and teamwork.
  • Just for Girls hockey camps — an exclusive, supportive environment focused on skill building, confidence, and time with teammates on and off the ice.

Both are skill-development oriented rather than competitive-event oriented. The Just for Girls camp is the more specialized option if you're looking specifically for a girls-only training environment.

CHE Academy

CHE Academy is separate from the tournament and camp lineup. It's CHE's own academy, based at the Miskin Law Community Complex in Peterborough, Ontario, where CHE says it collaborates with a high school, businesses, and coaches to develop elite athletes. Treat this as a development pathway rather than a weekend event — it's aimed at athletes looking to move to the next level, not at teams seeking tournament play or general camp instruction.

How to Decide

  • Looking for a competitive weekend with a team? Choose a tournament by group (men's, women's, boys', girls') and pick from the listed destinations.
  • Looking for skill development for a youth player? Choose a boys & girls camp, or Just for Girls if you want a girls-only setting.
  • Looking for elite-level development? CHE Academy is the relevant program, based in Peterborough, Ontario.

CHE describes itself as an international hockey company operating since 1987, welcoming teams from Canada, the USA, Europe, and elsewhere. Specific dates, prices, and registration requirements aren't covered in the available site information, so check the individual tournament or camp pages for those details.
