MN Made Hockey AAA Teams

Minnesota Made's first AAA team was the called The Minnesota 88s, the team was made up of players born in 1988.  Over the seven years that the team was together the focus was on high repetition skill training, very little systems and we only competed in tournaments.  By the time the 88s reached draft age, 8 of them were drafted by NHL teams. After the 88s had run their course we started a '96 team called the Minnesota Machine.  With the same development strategy and focus as with 88s,“The Machine” quickly became one of the top '96 teams in North America.  They made it to the championship game of every '96 tournament they have ever played in both in the US and Canada. They have won every tournament but one.   It wasn’t long and we were approached by many families about getting that same kind of training for their players.  Since then, we added Machine teams at most all levels and in 2006 started a second AAA club using this same training model.

At Minnesota Made Hockey we set our goals high. Over the last 19 years of coaching young athletes we have seen over and over again, if you start with a young enough player who has good (not even great) athletic ability and a strong drive to achieve. Combine this with enough ice time and high repetition skill training, they can accomplish great things. With the right commitment we can help these young athletes reach their goals and do things that others can only dream about.

The question is, are you willing to make the commitment?
