ABOUT
Center Ice Group (CIG) brings together three junior ice hockey teams with one shared goal—to develop young athletes into standout players and individuals. With a focus on high-level coaching, team culture, and personal growth, we offer a clear path for players aiming to compete at the collegiate level and beyond.
Our program is built on trust, discipline, and opportunity. We don’t just help players improve their game—we help them prepare for life on and off the ice. Whether you’re a player ready to take the next step or a parent looking for the right fit, CIG offers the support, exposure, and sense of belonging needed to thrive in competitive hockey.
At Center Ice Group, our mission is to empower young athletes through hockey—building character, discipline, and a sense of belonging both on and off the ice. We believe that personal and athletic growth go hand-in-hand, and every practice, game, and moment is a chance to inspire lifelong values.
We guide players toward their full potential—developing leadership, accountability, and resilience through high-level coaching and mentorship.
Our programs encourage strong minds and bodies, promoting fitness, mental toughness, and a balanced lifestyle through sport.
We foster a tight-knit, supportive community where every player feels valued. By investing in youth, we strengthen families and local hockey culture.
