PROSPECTIVE JR. PREDS AND FAMILY

As the 2019/2020 Jr. Preds season came to an unexpected end, we are excited about the return of AA/AAA Jr. Preds Hockey for the 20-21 season. Entering the second year of partnership between the Jr. Preds, TPH and the Nashville Predators, with a goal of growing hockey in Middle Tennessee, the Jr. Predators are well on their way to be the premier Tier I and II hockey associations in America.

The Jr. Predators was started over 15 years ago with the goal of creating a place for elite hockey players to play in Nashville. With the growth of the Predators brand over the last 22 years and the additions of Ford Ice Center Bellevue and Antioch, Nashville is now a hub for hockey.

The Nashville Predators are firm believers in growing hockey at all levels. From the first time kids step on the ice through our G.O.A.L. (Get Out and Learn) program, until the time they are playing their last adult league game, it is our goal to have a place for every hockey player and ice skater. No matter the skill level everyone should be comfortable at one of our facilities. The Nashville Jr. Predators organization provides the opportunity for the elite hockey players in Nashville to have an opportunity to compete at the highest youth hockey level and wear the Nashville Predators logo when they travel the country.

Through the partnership with TPH and the Jr. Predators we are committed to providing an elite hockey experience right here in Nashville and we are glad that you are interested in joining this great organization.

Have a Great Season!

All of this is done to develop student-athletes for opportunities in hockey, the classroom and life. Jr. Predators alumni have been drafted to and/or are playing in the NHL, NCAA, USHL, NAHL, NA3HL, and CHL. The Nashville Jr. Predators AAA Hockey Club is a program of the Nashville Elite Hockey Club Inc., a recognized 501c3 tax-exempt, nonprofit corporation.

JR PREDATORS HOCKEY CLUB MISSION • Provide student-athletes in the Greater Nashville Area the opportunity to compete at the highest level of amateur hockey available under USA Hockey. • Provide an elite coaching staff specializing in high performance training for intense competition, allowing players to fully develop their athletic and team skills. • Provide Jr. Predators athletes with an opportunity to achieve their academic and athletic goals throughout high school and college. • Hold Jr. Predators hockey players academically accountable and provide a forum where all players can further their leadership and citizenship skills. • Conduct operations with a level of fiscal responsibility, which will ensure the viability of the organization for the future.
