When to jump from A/AA to AAA HOCKEY?

[@michaelstidham5073]

I love your content. My son just started playing hockey. I know very little about the sport. Thanks for the videos they have helped me out tremendously!

I agree but I also think it depends on the kid. I have seen many kids with very good individual skill be put into A because of their hockey IQ and I'll bring them to play with AA-AAA boys during the summer and within a the first 4-8 weeks they adapt and actually improve faster than the others because they already have amazing skating and puck control.

Pretty simple…. Of the boy is lighting it up (ave. 2-3 goals a game) if he is really AAA (top AAA team) the AAA coaches will find him …. Some of the lower level AAA teams are the same as higher level T2 teams

I don’t know what to do for my son. He’s a great hockey player. He plays rep minor hockey. I can’t afford Triple A zones. So are we just out of luck for him going anywhere as a player?

You become a better player by playing with better players. Practice with people that cant pass or receive passes sucks and it brings you down. This is why some clubs always produce better players then other clubs.

True to a degree but there are exceptions.

I'm struggling with this very decision right now! My Son finished 23rd overall in goal scoring in the league. U10AA 5th placed team. 15 goals in 29 games. He is a January kid. Strong skating ability. Plays the Center Position. My first thought is. Is it beneficial to be playing AAA at just 11 or 12 years old??

Yes it will make its easier to put a player in aaa earlier because it will allow them to grow playing around better players and he will grow into a good aaa player if he works for it

Allot of over evaluation of kids...

[@stangleeze]

If a kid does not do any training from early on he will always be average

i have been playing hockey for a little over 2 years, i played single A my first 2 seasons and i just recently made and signed to an 18uAAA program. if you started late and want to get to the tier 1 level, you can do it. it will be tough, you will need to persevere through dickhead kids and people who make fun of you when you say your goals. but i did it and made all of them look fucking stupid. check yoself don't wreck yoself 🙏
