I have to say, as is true of all PIP events, you guys do an exceptional job! Truly exceptional! The girls are so fortunate for all you do to grow the game, to help them compete against the best of the best in order to improve their own game, to get them exceptional coaching, and to ultimately create events like 585 that put them in front of a lot of college coaches. My daughter has gotten invited to multiple college prospect camps this week and it's a direct result of her attending your event in Rochester this past weekend. So, THANK YOU!! And please extend my thanks to Kathy, Maddie, McKenna and everyone else at PIP. We truly appreciate you helping these girls chase their dreams. Many thanks, Kristina

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for providing such a fantastic opportunity and experience this weekend. My son, Jaxon Svenson, loved getting to practice and play with such a talented group of players from across the country! As a player with only two years under his belt, this was a tremendous learning experience for him. He’s excited for additional opportunities to grow, develop, and showcase his skills!

This was a great weekend - such an important area to focus on with so much worthwhile training! Our daughter was one of the few girls out there and she was rattling off everything she learned on each car ride home. As the only girl on her team last year, playing D, this will carry her well into her next season. Thank you so much!

I am emailing to say a HUGE thank you for the opportunity for Charlie to play with the Selects in Prague. We both had a fantastic time and Charlie learned a lot from the experience of playing with Coach Couch, “the boys” as he calls them, and the international play. Sasha, I imagine that you and your team put so much time and effort into making this a great experience for everyone and it shows. Coach, I know it can be hard to take a group of players who have never met and have them play together as a team. What fun it was! The night before we left, Charlie teared up in the room, telling me he needed just a bit more time and a few more games with the team. This speaks to the work behind the scenes you both did. Thank you. It is an experience neither one of us will forget.

My son Jack played on the 2011 Team USA this week in Slovenia. He traveled with my husband Joe. I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you for giving this awesome opportunity to Jack! It has been an incredible week and he has made so many memories and new friends. I can’t begin to imagine how much work this is to pull together. You run an awesome program and we appreciate the organization and communications. Keep up the great work.

The CCM Selects Europe team guides were top-notch and so helpful. We truly have extended our hockey family. And of course, in my opinion, we had the best hockey coaches in the country leading our teams. We truly had an experience we will never forget, and speaking personally for me, this was one of the best experiences I have ever been a part of.

Just wanted to drop a quick note on our experience in Chicago. I wanted to share how well the games were refereed. In all 8 games we played the refs didn't try to get in the way of the game, they were teachers, great to deal with, and allowed clean contact to occur. It was a breath of fresh air to see the game played how it should be.

Selects coaches taught our son that the game is just as mental and systematic as it is physical.  Playing in the Euro Invite with the Selects team allowed our family to experience new cultures and create memories together. In all, the Selects youth hockey was a helping hand in our son’s journey to becoming the young man and hockey player he is today.

By playing for the Selects over the summer, Jake could play with the top talents of his age group. This gave him the opportunity to make lifelong friends and travel to top-tier tournaments across the world. Playing games over the summer kept Jake engaged and made him more ready for the upcoming season each year he participated with the Selects.

The CCM Select program is very unique; there is an emphasis on playing the game the proper way (quick puck movement, responsibility in all 3 zones, consistent focus and intensity) that teaches skills absolutely necessary at the higher levels, regardless of a player's skill level.

My son attended CCM 68. Providing them with an unforgettable and humbling experience; putting things in perspective for them and their parents; adding to their development; adding to their confidence; allowing them to fail without breaking their spirit; showing them what they are doing well and what needs improvement.
