2019 PAUL STRAND 5th ANNUAL SUMMER PLUS MINUS TOURNAMENT

A one of a kind on ice experience, the NC Force Plus/Minus is the best summer tournament and all the hockey you will need to stay in shape for the season. It is once a week (approximate) and is as game like as any tournament can be. The game like format provides all the off-season on-ice conditioning needed in order for a player to enjoy the rest of the summer fun away from the rink of for older players to concentrate on hitting the GYM and developing their physical presence.

 

- Players placed on teams of 4-5 each week, PREFERENCE IS 5 VS 5
- A Goal for counts as plus, A Goal against counts as minus
- Each week the winning team, highest PLUS, (each player) goes home with a prize
- A MVP is picked for each week and they get a prize
- The individual plus/minus is recorded and carries over from week to week
- Penalties – Offending PLAYER will lose .5 of a Plus/Minus (New Rule)

NC FORCE U16AA AND U18AA GOLDEN BEARS JR PREP

Introducing the U16 AA AND U18AA Golden Bears Jr Prep Teams. In 2018-2019 the NC Golden Bears EHL Team provided a place to play for no less than 10 former NC Force Players. In an effort to better prepare the local U16 and U18 players for the elite competition of the Eastern Hockey League the NC Force Program is introducing a U16 and U18 AA Jr Prep program. 

The EHL is the top Tier 3 league in USA Hockey and throughout the United States. The Footprint of the EHL is the North East and in the heart of College Hockey. This footprint allows the EHL to easily produce the most Division 3 college commitments. In 2018-19 the EHL was responsible for %70 of the ALL Division 3 commitments in the all Junior hockey.

NC Force has assembled the best U16 and U18 Coaches in the Carolinas to lead these two teams which will play in the East Coast Elite League (ECEL). This league features 4 showcases, with school friendly schedules, in the same footprint of the EHL and prepare these players, many of them who will play Tier 3 and Division 3 hockey.

What sets the Golden Bear Jr Prep above the rest?

1. Non-Parent, Professional Coaching

2. Quality league, with great competition and footprint

3. A pathway to the only USA Hockey Jr Team in NC

4. Game/Practice development schedule that is flexible and meets the needs of High School Hockey players of North Carolina
