The National Collegiate Development Conference and United States Premier Hockey League are gearing up for their third and final Combine Series event of this season, as the 2024 USPHL NCDC Boston Combine kicks off Saturday morning and runs to Sunday afternoon. All the action will take place at the New England Sports Center in Marlborough, Mass.
The Combine will feature six full teams playing three games apiece during the event, in addition to a goaltender-specific session. Players and their families can also learn more about the NCDC and USPHL junior conferences during Informational Seminars, which will feature NCDC GMs and Coaches, as well as league personnel, all of whom are present to answer questions.
Dozens of NCDC and USPHL junior teams’ coaches are expected to be in attendance, and will be meeting with select players to discuss opportunities with their teams.
For those players registered, Team Assignments will be sent out today, including Game Schedules. We wish all the players the very best of luck in paving their Path To College Hockey.
