WHAT IS MD ?

The PMHA Minor Development (MD) programs for U8 and U9 players provide a higher level of development compared to regular local league programming. U8 players engage in half-ice games throughout the season, while U9 players transition from half-ice to full-ice games mid-season. These programs focus on advanced skill development, teamwork, and physical literacy, ensuring an engaging and age-appropriate hockey experience for young athletes.
