Middlesex Black Bears Hockey

For Serious Players wanting to play Competitive HS or Prep Hockey
*EVALUATIONS for the 2012-2013 season 7th and 8th grade Bantam or Middle School Team: The Team is FULL for the 2012-2013 season (with signed contracts). We are speaking with student-athletes and their families regarding the 2013-2014 season. We welcome conversations from ’99 and ’00 parents, or current 6th or 7th grade parents, to discuss the 2013-2014 season. We will be signing those student-athletes as early as November of 2012. *EVALUATIONS for the 2012-2013 season 9th and 10th grade Midget or Underclassmen Team is happening now. Our team will be full for the 2012-2013 season by February/March 2012. We will be signing 1997, 1996 and 1995 birth year players or 9th, 10th and 11th graders. *This program is not for every student-athlete. If you can answer yes to any of the following questions then this program is for you. 1. I want to be a student-athlete and not just a hockey player? 2. I want to be a student-athlete that plays varsity private/catholic/prep hockey? 3. I am serious about my academics? 4. I am serious about being the best student-athlete I can be? 5. I want to be in a professionally run program where top coaching, full-ice practices with incorporated skill development, and an independent philosophy (one that focuses on my development and where I want to go to school) is the main focus?

“Coach Moody has had a great impact on my life as a student-athlete. His great competitiveness and drive for his players to achieve their absolute best is inspiring. I am thankful for the many hours he has spent with me looking at several different college options. I am grateful for his dedication to me and my family during this very stressful period.”
Ben Barr - Full Scholarship RPI Hockey – Former Captain – Currently the Assistant Coach @ Providence College (Hockey East)
“Coach Moody was the reason why I had an opportunity to play and become a Captain at the Division I college level. He was in close contact with college recruiters constantly and convinced many of them they needed to take a hard look at me. One of those looks paid of for me and my entire family. Not only did I achieve my dream of playing Division I, but I was able to tell my parents they did not have to pay a dime for college. I am so thankful for Coach Moody and all that he has done. He is a great coach and has become a true friend.”
Pat Cullity – Full Scholarship University of Vermont Hockey – Former Captain - Currently Playing Pro Hockey
“I was coached by Coach Moody for five years as a student-athlete. He has seen me grow and develop through all the different periods of my academic and athletic life. His faith in me as a player gave me the confidence I needed to stay strong and continue to believe in my dream. He was a knowledgeable and tough coach. His experience and expertise are invaluable. My family and I are forever grateful for all that he has done to put me in the position to earn a full scholarship and achieve a childhood dream of playing Division I athletics.”
Parker McKee – Full Scholarship Duke Lacrosse – NCAA Division I 2010 Champion – Currently Playing Pro Lacrosse
” Coach Moody has the experience and knowledge to help his players navigate through the very difficult college recruiting process. Our relationship was one of mutual respect. I admire his passion for competition and his desire to help all of his players get to the next level. I am fortunate to have had him as a coach and value his friendship.”
