Four players and two coaches from Kootenay clubs will take part in the British Columbia Hockey Conference Prospects Game later this month.

The Delta Ice Hawks will host the game Tuesday, Nov. 24, at Sungod Arena in Delta, with puck drop at 6:30 p.m.

Beaver Valley Nitehawks head coach Terry Jones will lead Team Black. Nitehawks defenceman Crimson Chittick will serve as one of the team’s alternate captains.

Team Black also includes Kimberley Dynamiters forward Miller Tedesco, a Nelson product.

On Team White, Fernie Ghostriders head coach Chad Scharff will work as an assistant coach. The roster includes Nelson Leafs defenceman Nolan Murphy and Nitehawks goaltender Kayd Mercier.

The BCHC is in its first season as a Junior A league, made up of former Kootenay International Junior Hockey League and Pacific Junior Hockey League teams.

Tickets are sold online only, through Showpass, with no sales at the door. The conference said it expects a sellout.
