Report
I am very positively satisfied with the first year which my son spent in Academy. At the beginning we were a little bit worried how he will cope with many difficulties - being far away from home, not being confident in language, new environment... I have to express my big gratitude to the teachers, couches and all other staff at Academy who helped Leo to blend in and motived him. I appreciate the prompt feedback and willingness to solve any problems and issues straight way. I am also thankful for the relationship between teachers and students, where they work closely and together to make this experience

Very impressed with the comprehensive approach to developing young hockey players, starting in the classroom! More importantly, I was very impressed with the culture at CIH. Life is a journey and these folks understand the personal/family connection necessary to help these boys become successful in life, both on and off the ice. Coach Joey Clare… managed to bring two frozen Texans into their campus family within a matter of just a few hours during visit yesterday and Ryan can’t stop talking about coming back for the Prospect Camp July 16-20! #Privilege #Responsibility #Accountability

We traveled from Detroit, Michigan on several recommendations for CIH academy. My son plays Mite (novice) AA hockey in the states. He's attended numerous camps and workshops in Michigan. CIHA is hands down the best on ice instruction he has ever received. The coaches' attention to detail is second to none. Focusing on player development, quality… over quantity and positive reinforcement - the coaches here focused on each player at his or her individual level. In one week, we noticed a marked improvement in our son's stride, shot, and most importantly - his confidence. A big thank you to

If you are looking for a hockey program that will develop your child stay far away from this hockey academy. They have no interest in it... or the personal with any knowledge for $44,000 +.. your child better be a super star player or the only hockey experience they will receive will be the BENCH!!! ..
Winning is the only measurement at this academy...When the team is struggling they simply fix it with bringing up not one or two players but an entire team so that hopefully it will provide some success... How they justify the cost when you could pay $2500 - $3500 having your child play in your
