(Youth1) - So your child is really good at hockey. You watch him on the ice and there is something in his eyes; passion, fire, desire to play at a higher level. What do you do? First thing is keep those skates sharpened, but more than anything you should hook him up with a top level hockey program that caters to kids with the talent and energy to play against the best in the world.

 

            

 

 

The "Selects" Hockey Program was formed in 2003, and today is by far one of the most committed youth hockey programs on record. Their simple goal is to provide deserving players a chance to develop, play and compete against the top teams and players in the world. Alumni achievements include 37 NHL draft picks in the last 3 years, hundreds of players drafted into the CHL and over 52 players committed to NCAA hockey programs.

 

Let's make this simple, there is not a better program out there for your child when it comes to youth hockey play and development!

 

This year in particular the rosters at every level are stacked, but Youth1 wants to take the time to recognize this years star players from the 97' level East coast and West.

 

Good luck to all, and as always check back with Youth1 for all of your news, articles and profiles on the athletes and games that make youth sports the most exciting games to watch.
