    Interested in the NC Force for 2020-21?

    NC Force very rapidly has become a "Force" to be reckoned with in the Carolinas. Starting with two teams in 2015-16, NC Force has grown to include six NC Force teams and one NC Golden Bears U16 AA Team in 2019-20.

    NC Force believes that there needs to be a balance between youth sports and family life. Over the years youth sports have provided more practices and team events that have created increased burnout. 

    NC Force instead focuses on high tempo practices by professional coaches and bringing ice touches to a manageable level and decreased costs. NC Force is a non tryout, first come first serve program with a near 100% retention rate.

    In 2019-2020 NC Force added a U16 AA tryout based team. This part of the program is called the NC Golden Bears and will expand at the older age groups in 2020-21. Info coming in the near future.
