David Kapral was born and raised in Bensalem, PA.  He was the oldest of four children of Lisa and Dave Kapral.  His three siblings are Steven, Nick and Alyssa.  Dave and the Kapral Family have been with the Blazers Family since 2001.  Dave was on the Midget 18AA team as an Assistant Captain, along with his brother Steven. 

David was always looked to as a leader.  He almost always was selected as either Assistant Captain or Captain of his teams, even though he was usually the youngest player on the team.  David was also the captain of the Father Judge High School program in his senior season 2006-2007.  David went on to attend West Chester University, and came home on weekends to play hockey with his friends at the Blazers and spend time with his girlfriend Ashley.

David was always one to organize his social life by inviting family, friends and teammates to the Kapral home on the Delaware River; often organizing paintball games with friends and teammates.  If not paintball, it was four-wheeling or jet-skiing on the river.  Anyone who knows David got the "Camp Kapral" experience.
