The sport of hockey can greatly impact the lives of kids, especially the girls who take up the sport at a young age. The Little Caesars AAA Hockey Club, one of the nation’s premier amateur hockey organizations, provides opportunities for young players to advance their athletic careers. Each year, high school students around the country sign a binding National Letter of Intent to play collegiate sports for the school of their choice.

For signatories from the Little Caesars AAA Hockey Club’s Girls team, there’s another layer of significance: some of them grew up watching their big brothers on the ice, wondering when their opportunity to play hockey would come.

Due to their hard work, dedication to the sport and the help of the coaches and staff of the Little Caesars AAA Hockey Club, these athletes will have the opportunity to attend college and play the game they love.
