The Professional Hockey Players' Association
Grow with the Pros!
About the Program
The PHPA’s Grow With The Pros Program provides young hockey players with the opportunity to learn directly from professional players.
The program connects minor hockey teams with PHPA members, who share their experiences and provide valuable advice both on and off the ice.
During each session, PHPA members lead an on-ice practice focused on skill development before taking part in an interactive question-and-answer discussion.
Participants gain insight into the dedication, preparation, and mindset required to compete at the professional level, while also learning important lessons about teamwork, perseverance, and personal growth.
Since its launch in 2016, Grow With The Pros has created meaningful connections between PHPA members and local hockey communities, inspiring the next generation of players through mentorship, education, and a shared passion for the game.
In partnership with teams across the league, the PHPA works to deliver unique and impactful experiences for minor hockey players and their families.
Stay tuned for exciting program updates coming in 2027.
