See What Others Are Saying About Atlantic Coast Hockey Academy
Coming from a top program like MFF and transitioning to ACA has significantly boosted my confidence and development. The coaching staff at ACA believed in me from day one, supporting me through the college commitment process. The amount of games and training opportunities at ACA has truly enhanced my overall development & played a big role in making me the player I am today.
Brenden Sanchez, Member of 18u ACA Team“It was a big decision to send our 15 year old son away to pursue his hockey passion. Living in south Florida the opportunities become more limited at this age. The Florida Alliance AAA program certainly built a solid foundation but it was time to move on. Not being a fan of a billet arrangement and not willing to spend the money on a prep school we narrowed our search to an academy model. After researching, visiting and playing for several of the various organizations, the decision to attend Atlantic Coast became clear. Our son had an amazing year. The coaches were awesome, campus was beautiful with plenty of things to do when the boys weren’t on the ice or studying. We were able to choose the right online school program that best suit our needs. With the help of the staff our son made the honor roll and maintained dicipline. On the ice. We saw a huge improvement in his skill and intensity. Practicing on and off the ice everyday and playing high level games every weekend is something we have always struggled to find in south Florida. The decision to go back for his second year was a no brainer!”
