We are pleased to introduce our Academy Evaluator tool that will help you determine if the Academy may be a good fit for your player.  This online application utilizes a series of custom algorithms to analyze information you provide about your player, in comparison with other players attending the Academy and a unique database of playing and developmental characteristics from over 51,000 junior players competing at the local, regional, national, and international levels of the game.  



Simply input information about your player into the Evaluator and you will receive instant feedback right on this web page, that will guide you on whether your player is ready for, and will most likely have success training at the Academy.  


No contact information, cost, or any type of obligation is required from you to utilize this tool.


The whole process should take you approximately 3-4 minutes.  


Along with providing instant feedback, the Evaluator will then provide guidance on how you can obtain additional information, and/or speak with the Academy Director, about...


    • The areas we evaluate and the skills sets we look for when players apply to the Academy,
    • Applying to the Academy at this time if appropriate for your player, or
    • How your player could prepare to join the Academy at a later time, once their skills have improved.



Please note, using and receiving results from the Evaluator does not guarantee admittance to the Academy.  Although the Evaluator offers a reasonable assessment of a player's possible success at the Academy, admittance is only granted after the Academy receives a full application from a player and the Academy Director approves such admittance.
