The Purcell Hockey Academy (PHA) was back on the road in November, not once, but two times.
Following their success at the 2024 Fall Foliage Classic, PHA headed to Colorado for four games, including a two-game set against Denver University, who are an ACHA Division 1 team.
They then went to Toronto for another four games at the CAA Centre in Brampton. PHA has now played 20 games in their debut season and are sporting a record of 13-6-1. They will now head take a break as a few team members head back to their home countries, where they will train and compete with their respective U18 national teams.
Before that, all PHA players who remain in Kimberley will attend the College Hockey Showcase in Sun Valley, Idaho. There they will practice and play in front of coaches representing top U.S. college programs including the University of Vermont and the University of New Hampshire.
The team is still has space on their roster and is already taking inquiries for next year. If you are interested in learning more, visit purcellcollegiate.ca or on social media at @purcellhockey.
