Elite Academy

The CHA Academy Program is a true hockey development program geared towards the entire athlete. This is a special opportunity for your child to take part in something that will push them to level up their skills and be trained by professional coaches.

The CHA Academy Program is entering its 11th season, dedicated to advancing the skills of like-skilled rep athletes.

Our goal is to elevate their skill level, skating, battling, and most importantly, their hockey IQ. This exclusive program spans 9 weeks, with an expectation of full attendance from our athletes.

Key features of the program include:

Testing Session: Athletes undergo a dedicated session for skill assessment.
Hockey Gym Credits: Two credits are allotted for shooting, stride, or stickhandling.
Personalized Feedback: Tailored feedback to help each athlete improve.

This program is exclusively for athletes we select based on their testing results, level of play, and character. Notable academy graduates include Team Canada player Zach Nyman, OHL drafted player Caden Okovita, Women's U18 Team Captain Emma Venusio, and many other elite players who have developed within our system.

SAVE YOUR SPOT

My son Liam and I made the trip to China to participate in the Little Wolf tournament on a team put together by CHA. The Boys played against kids one to two years older than them and CHA’s coaching and positive attitude got them all the way to the finals of their division. It was truly an amazing trip for Liam, and I watched him develop as a player and as a teammate.

The benefits of the Academy go beyond just hockey. Lucas’ teachers have asked us why on Thursday’s he's more focused, alert and excited to be at school. When we tell them it’s because he’s already been on the ice, they can’t believe it. We can. You would think waking up at 5:30 in the morning, in the pitch black, -18 degrees outside would deter our kid, but there’s nothing Lucas would rather do than get out of bed and head to the rink. I wished there was a CHA Academy when I was growing up.

My son has participated in the Spring Hockey Program at Central Hockey Academy (CHA) for several years. The Academy is a competitive and structured program which we’ve found to greatly enhance our son’s skills and techniques. All the coaches at CHA have been professional, engaging and attentive to the players needs. The coaches strive to challenge the players and provide them with opportunities to better themselves. In 2018, the CHA coach of my son’s Spring Team has registered the team for a tournament in Los Angeles. This will be an outstanding opportunity for my son to have International exposure to hockey. The Spring Hockey Program at CHA is the best in the City. My son looks forward to the program every year.

We are so glad we found a hockey program that understands kids and how they learn. The staff are absolutely amazing. They take pride in what they teach and actually ‘correct’ kids when needed. The small group sizes and high intensity training program is exactly what my son needed. CHA also provide a great spring program and this year the kids will be headed to Los Angeles for the Carmen Starr Tinseltown Tournament Series. Our expectations with CHA were totally exceeded. Thanks CHA!!

My daughter's play rep level hockey and both attend the CHA Academy program. The program is a completely unique opportunity to help both of them work on elevating their skating, puck skills and for my older daughter, her hitting and puck protection skills. I recommend CHA and their outstanding staff to anyone interested in helping their child push past their limits and achieve their true potential!

My 3 kids have participated in the Monday Academy Program and have loved it! The program is tailored to rep players who genuinely love hockey and want to improve their game in an environment where the instructor to player ratio is very low.The instructors are amazing and know how to communicate and work with well with children – an often overlooked skill. The Academy Program was instrumental in improving my kid’s edge work and improving their confidence in stickhandling and shooting. I absolutely recommend this program to any parent that has rep-level kids that are keen and want to improve their game!
