WHAT WE DO
NEXLEVEL HOCKEY IS NOT YOUR AVERAGE GROUP. WHAT SETS US APART? IN AN INDUSTRY WHERE THERE ARE A FEW PRETENDERS OUT THERE, NEXLEVEL HOCKEY OFFERS A QUALIFIED STAFF. USE OUR EXPERIENCE TO HELP YOU REACH YOUR GOALS WITHIN THE GAME AND DECIDE ON THE RIGHT FIT TO SUCCEED ON AND OFF THE ICE.
HOW WE DO IT
WHAT KIND OF PLAYER WORKS WITH NEXLEVEL HOCKEY?
Nexlevel Hockey is looking to team up with top tier Junior eligible players with ’07 to ’02 birth years.
With so many talented players, the margin to separate yourself from the pack is slim. THE GAME HAS CHANGED. Don’t go at it alone.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
Nexlevel hockey representation is an investment. When you consider the cost of youth hockey, tuition based Junior programs, training camps, & college, let us help to ensure you invest wisely.
WHAT JUNIOR LEAGUE CAN YOU HELP ME GET TO?
THE ONE YOU BELONG IN. Nexlevel will help guide you through the best course for your development. We’ll aim for a situation with a key role on a team that best fits your current ability, budget, and provides an opportunity to improve.
HOW DO YOU HELP ME GET TO COLLEGE HOCKEY?
The Nexlevel hockey staff knows what it takes to get you through the NCAA Clearinghouse. We are experienced in both Division I and Division III academic requirements. We utilize our Nexlevel Academic Compliance Advisor to find out what your recruiting options are, and how to grow that target market (tutors, improved ACT scores, course selection).
WHICH UNIVERSITIES CAN YOU HELP ME GET INTO?
This question depends on many academic factors. Depending on your GPA, ACT, or SAT – your eligibility will be approved or denied based on minimum academic requirements per university. Superstar on the ice and in the classroom? You will have a shot at all Division I and Division III Universities. Have a 2.4 GPA and a 16 ACT? You just boxed out most of the market. Focus on school; help us help you.
CAN YOU HELP ME PLAY PRO HOCKEY?
Absolutely not. Nexlevel Hockey is not a Professional Hockey Agency. We help our players maintain their eligibility and amateur status. Any marketing of a player to a professional team or league jeopardizes their future in the NCAA. We focus solely on decisions regarding your Junior Hockey path and eventually into College Hockey.
