We would like to thank the founder of ,Joe Quinn, for coming out and working with our kids today.

Joe has trained some of the NHL’s top talent with names like Connor McDavid, Connor Bedard, Dylan Larkin, Alex DeBrincat, Jack Hughes, Quinn Hughes, and many more!

What a great opportunity for our players and coaches to learn from some of the best. We look forward to having Joe back in Des Moines soon!

With the announcement of Nick Saban’s retirement, here is a great quote that adds perspective to how in depth of a coach he was.

Saban was all about culture and what he created could not have been done without good people around him. These coaches and athletes do not reach the highest levels without being good people.

Character adds more value than you think. More times than not, one of the first questions college coaches ask when recruiting a kid are, “What’s their character like?” And “What’s their family like?”

Who you are some of the time, is who you are all the time. The person makes the player… be that person and add that value!

Our coaches have had the privilege of being around other great players/coaches that have gone on to the NHL.

When discussing what made them reach their goals of being in the top 1% of what they do, it was very clear that talent wasn’t the anchor that got them there.

It was a mindset and work ethic that was unmatched. It was obsession. These people had a higher standard for themselves and a work ethic through details and preparation that separates them from the pack. Day after day, they chipped away.

At the end of the day, what are you willing to sacrifice now, for you to gain in the future?
