The CCM Minnesota Hockey High Performance programs are designed to identify the best players in Minnesota and to provide the top players from each district or section the chance to play with and against the best players in the state.

“Reaching this stage of the High Performance evaluation process is a terrific accomplishment for these players, and it’s a great opportunity for them to take the next step in their development,” said CCM Minnesota Hockey High Performance Director, Mike MacMillan. “We are so proud of all of these boys and girls as they continue to show why Minnesota continues to produce the most college hockey players in the country.”

All spring CCM High Performance festivals will be streamed live by MNHockey.Tv and can be viewed by purchasing a weekend pass. Click here to watch now.

Ted Brill Great 8 Festival

For over 35 years, the Ted Brill Great 8 Festival has provided the top high school players in Minnesota an opportunity to showcase their skills and abilities to coaches and scouts from junior, collegiate and professional teams.

Organized by the MHCA and Minnesota Hockey, the event features four teams of Senior players, and another four teams, referred to as HP 18’s, determined from Junior players born in 2003. The Senior and HP 18 teams are formed according to paired high school sections (Sections 1 & 3, Sections 2 & 6, Sections 4 & 5 and Sections 7 & 8) and compete in a series of round robin games Friday and Saturday before advancing to the championship round on Sunday. 

Rosters and schedules for the Great 8, which will be held at Doug Woog Arena in South St. Paul, can be found here.

In addition to representing their high school sections during the Great 8 Festival, players are also evaluated by qualified personnel for the chance to represent Minnesota in the Boys’ CCM National Invitational Tournament which will be held April 28 through May 1 in Plymouth, MN. Two teams of 20 players, one HP 18 team and a Senior team, will be selected to compete against the top high school players from Colorado, Michigan, North Dakota and Wisconsin.

HP 16 & 17 Festivals

The HP 16 & 17 Spring Festivals, which are set to start Friday, April 22, will feature the top boys and girls’ hockey players from Minnesota born in 2005 (HP 17) and 2006 (HP 16) at Plymouth Ice Center in Plymouth, MN. The players will compete on teams representing their high school section (ex: Section 8A/AA) in a standard eight team tournament, with championship games on Sunday, April 24.
