Opting for Scholastics
As hockey players, we are conditioned into believing that our dream is the only path. We work on the assumption and belief that we will rise to the next level and thereby succeed. We watch the draft and think that your turn is just around the corner. When we get asked what path we might choose next we casually mention “I plan on going to school and get the scholarship I have always dreamed of. For too many individuals these assumptions or ideas don’t always work and lets face it the idea of a scholarship wasnt your first choice playing hockey was. The important thing to realize is that it is acceptable for you to take other routes. Your career doesn’t have to take a traditional course. YOU have several options that you need to explore so dont waste your time with one decision.Route 1 Minor Hockey + Junior Hockey + NCAA = PRO
Route 2 Minor Hockey + Major Junior = PRO/CISRoute 3 Minor Hockey + Prep School + NCAA = PRO
Choose right and live life to its fullest – its your future!The Canadian game will take our career path in several directions and in some cases we dont always get what we want. No different from the game of life.
