Hi,
My 16 year old brother has been invited to some Jr. prospect tournaments this summer and told he can most probably play on the tier II jr level if he wants to. He's always played for bad AA teams (only team in our area) but he is often the best player on the ice for either team and has never really received any professional coaching. He's going to be a Sr. next year and has straight A's to this point in HS (he's completed calc BC, AP bio/chm/physics/ect. in 11th grade) and is probably going to be in position to get an academic scholarship to a good school if he can keep it up academically . Would it be a big risk for him to play Jr. hockey next year in a league like the WSHL or would he likely be able to maintain the academic success he's had so far? If anyone suggest a good hockey option for someone looking to keep developing as a hockey player without suffering academically?
