President Peter Alden and his professional staff offer a unique top level program for boys that include specialized instruction with a strong focus on dynamic skating, skill development, goalie instruction, team concepts, strength, conditioning and building leadership skills.

Elite Hockey Program is a highly competitive tier 1/AAA hockey program for boys located at the Northford Ice Pavilion in Northford, Connecticut, just a few miles away from NCAA division one powerhouses, Yale University and Quinnipiac University.  The Elite Hockey Program is entering its third season and in that time we have doubled our participant level, created a face-paced on-ice and off-ice development program playing in the Atlantic Youth Hockey League (AYHL) and East Coast Elite League (ECEL).
