NAHL Combines are carefully designed to provide an Education, Exposure, and Experience for prospects that strive to advance their hockey development at the junior hockey and college level.

In 2021, there are combines for two different age groups.

Junior (2001 to 2005 birth years): Highlight exposure to scouts and junior coaches – Continue education about proven pathway to NCAA hockey via the NAHL’s Ladder of Development – Provide an experience that will help in the player’s next steps in pursuit of playing junior hockey.

16U (2005 to 2007 birth years): Reinforce education about the proven pathway to the NCAA through junior hockey – Emphasize evaluation and further exposure to NAHL and NA3HL coaches and scouts – Provide a realistic experience of a junior tryout.
