From the team
Masters Academy combines elite athletics with world class facilities and a top notch academic environment. Quite simply, for a family that is serious about full season development in your sport, the best training and staff, values a strong curriculum and a social campus life atmosphere that rivals any environment in the country, this is the perfect place for your student-athlete.
Folks should be reminded that the only thing new about MAI is the facilities. New fields, new classrooms, new dorms, new cafeteria. All the good things are new! The curriculum, the model, the coaches, the schedule, the development, the teachers and administrators are not new. All of that is experienced proven to be successful on a national level.

Coaching across age groups
Middle School
(Grades 6-8)
At the middle school level, our focus is on skill development, including power skating, puck and stick skills, proper shooting technique, and hockey IQ and creativity reinforced through small-area games.
Our priorities are building strong habits, confidence, and a growth mindset. Off the ice, our middle school players will work in our indoor shooting lanes and receive training in strength, nutrition, and leadership as part of the overall program.
Academy Teams
(Grades 9-12)
Skill development – We focus on transferable, detail-oriented skills that’ll help differentiate our players at higher levels.
Our program is designed to holistically prepare players to be junior, NCAA, and professional-level athletes. Valuing team culture and learning how to compete and prepare as elite athletes is a key part of our core beliefs. We emphasize developing both the person and the player.
Every week, players will have access to individual and team video reviews, as well as position-specific skills training, in addition to their team practices. They will also receive weekly strength and conditioning sessions, along with mental and leadership training as part of our comprehensive development model.
College Prep / Elite Athletes
New England is the mecca for showcasing and recruiting in hockey. We have a higher percentage of NCAA schools in our backyard than any other geographic region in the country.
Events are held in our area seemingly every weekend that promote players and teams, making it easy for coaches to come and evaluate players without having to travel by plane or take long bus rides. Being in a geographic region that allows our players to miss less school and have a more predictable weekly schedule means we can support their academic development as much as their athletics.
It also means every week they will not have to sacrifice their strength training, which is such an important part of their development during these years of transformative growth. In addition to on-ice development, players in this group also receive mental and leadership development to support their overall performance and maturity.
Our hockey staff boasts a combined 100-plus years of experience in promoting and leading the college recruitment process for high-end amateur players. As your players progress and achieve success at higher levels, coaches build trust in your development model and your ability to prepare players for what’s next. Relationships are a critical part of the recruiting process, and as our players move on and outperform their peers, scouts and coaches develop the trust in our program necessary to ensure long-term success. Our staff has consistently delivered this at a very high level for over 25 years, and that trust has been built over time.
