Developmental

Depending on the area in the USA or Canada, in either the Major Bantam or Minor Midget year, most parents should become informed of the business considerations, and familiar with the implications that will arise from Major Junior A Hockey Drafts and the various eligibility rules of the NCAA. For all players, whether drafted or not, the following years are crucial development years for these players.

In addition, 2005 Hockey Canada rule changes strictly limit the number of younger players to play at the Major A, provincial Junior A and B levels even if drafted. This means that for most players, a return to Midget hockey may be a very real possibility. For those limited Junior possibilities, our Advisors have been able to successfully assist in development opportunities.

  • USHL, NAHL, provincial and various Junior leagues

    • Keep options and leverage and know the implications that will arise from:

    • The advise of an independent advisor assesses and outlines the realistic options ahead and sets you on a more effective and enjoyable course that reduces anxiety, financial costs and many unnecessary hours of travel and worry for parent and player while providing follow-up ongoing support and contact.
