Built to develop. Proven to advance.
Elite coaching, the highest level tournaments in the country and a clear path from academy hockey to the WBS Knights juniors, college and beyond.
One ladder, youth to juniors.
Players train on the ice almost every day and play the highest level tournaments in the country, in front of scouts, college coaches and agents. Strength, conditioning, recovery and sports psychology are part of the plan, not extras.
One team, on the ice and in the stands.
When they are not playing, academy players fill the student section to back their teammates.
The people who guide every player.
Experienced coaches, a dedicated academic advisor and a team physician, all working together for each player on and off the ice.
A proven path to the next level.
593 of our players have earned a college education while playing hockey for the WBS Knights. Our alumni have also been drafted into the NHL, played Major Junior and USA Hockey’s National Team Development Program and gone on to play college hockey at every level.
