What is Junior Hockey in the USA?
Many schools and academies in the USA are interested in the development and improvement of their athletes. That is why school premises, as a rule, are equipped with a great infrastructure for both summer and winter sports. A fantastic combination of secondary education and sports practices is attractive not only to USA based, but also for international students.
Most of schools show great interest in talented young athletes and often provide scholarships to partially or fully cover the students’ educational expenses.
Hockey Leagues Diversity in the US
The largest league – USHL prep – a leader in NHL and NCAA level graduates.
MPHL – a North American elite hockey league, after which athletes can continue playing in NCAA (college league).
School Transfer Process of the F1 visa holders within the US
It is a very common situation that the students change the school in the mod-year in the USA. In order to complete a correct transfer process a student needs to follow required rules and regulations. SEVIS system change record is the most important part of that process. As per clients’ request, we can help to make that process smoother and complete as per all SEVIS requirements.
Age Range of the Hockey Players
We are offering our clients programs starting middle school, 14 years old and up to 21 years old. As per your individual request, we can offer you the best variant that is most appropriate in your situation.
Training process
As a rule, practices are scheduled on daily basis (weekends include the games) and include ice practices and gym exercise practices.
We are always providing a training schedule before signing a contract with a client, so an athlete could be aware of the frequency of practices and games.
Perspectives & Expectations
If a hockey player is talented enough, his chance to move to the USHL increases. This means further career development and great future educational opportunities.
Deadlines and Admission Process
If you are planning to start a school year in August, we strongly recommend to start preparing documents in December of the proceeding school year.
