What are the World University Games?

These hockey games are held every two years and take the top players from all the universities in the country and they play against other countries. 80 players and 8 goalies fight for the chance to make TEAM USA and head over to Italy to represent USA in the fight for gold. They take 20 players and 3 goal tenders to the W.U.G.

As of right now 3 USF players are in the running to attend camp and have the chance to make TEAM USA. They have spent the last several months, and months to come training hours a day on dry land and on the ice to be able to represent USF on the national and then hopefully the world level. We have 2 players and a goalie in the contending of this honor. Our goalie has been ranked in the top 10 Nationally in D3 for the past 4 years; the players are both transfers from other programs- who have an advance skill level.

The Ice Bulls are trying to raise enough money to cover their try-out expenses, as USF has not been able to help with funding them even though they will be representing USF at the national level and then hopefully in the World Games.

The cost will be $525 plus airfare for the 3 to attend the invite only camp and if picked the ACHA and NCAA will cover international costs. All donations are tax deductible, and will be counted as sponsorship to the team. (Meaning team sponsor benefits will apply to you)

Please contact USFiceBulls@aol.com if you would like more details or are interested (or know someone/business) who would be in helping USF get on the map during these boy’s journeys to the World University Games in Italy.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
