With the recent NCAA decision to allow Major Junior players access to play NCAA hockey, hundreds of student athletes, or those that aspired to be student athletes are now left with very few options. Combine that decision with the earlier rule change to limit NCAA Division 1 rosters to twenty six players beginning in 2025, and there is a major squeeze taking place for players who aspired to play college hockey.
European College Hockey Placement Services was created in response to the ever changing college hockey environment in the United States and Canada.
Having a great college experience, and a great athletic experience is not limited to playing in North America or at the NCAA level. With these NCAA rule changes, prospective student athletes must now think outside of the box, and make smart life decisions concerning their education and athletic futures.
The ECHPS offer is designed to create new pathways for those players who once aspired to play NCAA hockey, or to those who are now displaced, or decommitted from the university they had been committed to.
Staffed by professionals who have worked with North American and European universities, as well as European hockey programs, we can ensure a smooth transition to an excellent opportunity in Europe.
For the current academic and athletic school year, we have already placed players in countries across Europe and Scandinavia.
The Czech Republic, Finland, Poland, Slovakia, and Sweden are some of the countries where players have gone to explore a new opportunity for their educational and athletic goals.
We offer access to hundreds of universities across Europe and Scandinavia that can provide a quality education and great athletic experience.
When one door closes, another door opens. While changes in North America may be disappointing, and may limit your opportunities there, Europe is a whole new world to look toward.
Our team is made up of highly educated and experienced people in Europe and North America. We deal directly with the Univerisites and teams.
With direct connections to team, league, federation, and academic decision makers, we offer a streamlined, and stress free placement service.
Our placement service is guaranteed to produce opportunities to receive your education for less money than it would cost in North America, while still having a great hockey experience.
