2020-21 SEASON NASHVILLE JR PREDATORS
PROSPECTIVE JR. PREDS AND FAMILY
    As the 2019/2020 Jr. Preds season came to an unexpected end, we are excited about the return of AA/AAA Jr. Preds Hockey for the
    20-21 season. Entering the second year of partnership between the Jr. Preds, TPH and the Nashville Predators, with a goal of growing
    hockey in Middle Tennessee, the Jr. Predators are well on their way to be the premier Tier I and II hockey associations in America.

    The Jr. Predators was started over 15 years ago with the goal of creating a place for elite hockey players to play in Nashville. With the
    growth of the Predators brand over the last 22 years and the additions of Ford Ice Center Bellevue and Antioch, Nashville is now a hub
    for hockey.

    The Nashville Predators are firm believers in growing hockey at all levels. From the first time kids step on the ice through our G.O.A.L.
    (Get Out and Learn) program, until the time they are playing their last adult league game, it is our goal to have a place for every
    hockey player and ice skater. No matter the skill level everyone should be comfortable at one of our facilities. The Nashville Jr.
    Predators organization provides the opportunity for the elite hockey players in Nashville to have an opportunity to compete at the
    highest youth hockey level and wear the Nashville Predators logo when they travel the country.

    Through the partnership with TPH and the Jr. Predators we are committed to providing an elite hockey experience right here in
    Nashville and we are glad that you are interested in joining this great organization.

    Have a Great Season!

ABOUT
    THE JR PREDATORS HOCKEY CLUB
    The Nashville Jr. Predators Hockey Club is a non-profit organization and was established with the goal to allow players to live at home
    or close to home, while still competing at the Tier I AAA, Tier II AA and Tier II Girls level against other top programs in the country.
    National in structure, Tier I AAA hockey is the most highly scouted and recruited youth division which produces the most players for
    non-pay-to-play junior leagues such as the USHL, NAHL and CHL. NJP hockey offers student-athletes access to full time professional
    hockey coaches that work within the guidelines laid out by the USA Hockey American Development Model (ADM). All of this is done to
    develop student-athletes for opportunities in hockey, the classroom and life. Jr. Predators alumni have been drafted to and/or are
    playing in the NHL, NCAA, USHL, NAHL, NA3HL, and CHL. The Nashville Jr. Predators AAA Hockey Club is a program of the Nashville
    Elite Hockey Club Inc., a recognized 501c3 tax-exempt, nonprofit corporation.

     JR PREDATORS HOCKEY CLUB MISSION
     •   Provide student-athletes in the Greater Nashville Area the opportunity to compete at the highest level of amateur hockey
         available under USA Hockey.
     •   Provide an elite coaching staff specializing in high performance training for intense competition, allowing players to fully develop
         their athletic and team skills.
     •   Provide Jr. Predators athletes with an opportunity to achieve their academic and athletic goals throughout high school and
         college.
     •   Hold Jr. Predators hockey players academically accountable and provide a forum where all players can further their leadership
         and citizenship skills.
     •   Conduct operations with a level of fiscal responsibility, which will ensure the viability of the organization for the future.
