Our Philosophy
To be successful in today’s game, we believe a TPH Athlete must possess three qualities: overall skill, sports sense, and competitiveness. At the same time, we improve a player’s strength, speed, athleticism, and endurance, to create an elite TPH Athlete.
Five training phases, daily training themes, positive hands-on coaching, innovative methods, and video analysis are utilized to accelerate the development process of The TPH Athlete and prepare each individual for advancement to the highest levels.
BUILT FOR ATHLETES
REGARDLESS OF SPORT
The TPH Academy training program is designed for aspiring elite student-athletes who are willing to invest their time and effort into personal growth. At TPH we recognize that individual skill focus often gets neglected due to busy competition schedules, lack of facility accessibility after academic hours, and team-centric coaching.
TPH is focused on long-term student-athlete development by providing platforms that allow each individual to discover new levels of potential. Learn more about how our student-athletes in Athletics train for their sports by selecting your sport below.
What Our TPH Academy Families Are Saying
"My experience attending school and receiving hockey and strength training at the same time was instrumental in my development. It was at the TPH hockey academy that I was able to be assessed as an individual and a hockey development plan was specifically made for me. I was a late developer and the hockey and strength and conditioning staff understood and communicated that it would take hard work, hockey skills and IQ, and patience that would allow me to continue to improve and move from Junior, to College, to Pro over years. I have continued to train in the off-season each year and this is my 10th off-season training with them. I cannot express my gratitude enough toward Dwayne, Kevin, Wade, Trevor, Josh, and staff for their continued support of my efforts to improve in hockey and achieve my goals both on and off the ice"

"Connor loved the ice and off ice components and the instruction for sure. Brendan Burke and Brett Blatchford are GREAT coaches and develop a wonderful rapport with the students. Connor felt he really improved as a goalie and that Brendan Burke had his best interest in mind always! "

"TPH Academy Superior has provided my son with a comprehensive academic and athletic environment that has challenged him and supported him these past few years. The versatile academic options and willingness of the Head of Academics have allowed him to pursue higher level and college preparatory coursework. Mrs. Doman has enabled him to access needed electives, provided pathways to socially interact with local high school peers, and participate in worthwhile community service projects. TPH’s program and athletic training have provided an amazing opportunity to ensure our son's optimal athletic performance, created advanced hockey skills and developed a goal-oriented mindset. Lastly, the friendships he has developed and the memories of the TPH will last a lifetime."

"TPH Academy has been an integral part of our kids’ lives and our family’s life for many years. Both of our sons have attended and excelled within the structure of TPH. As a mom, what I have loved most is that their schooling and training are led by highly qualified staff while being surrounded and encouraged by other elite athletes. They are home every night with both schoolwork and training completed, extending our family time together. TPH supported and guided my oldest son as he moved from TPH to the NAHL and onto D1 college hockey. TPH has been integral in mentoring my younger son as he moves to Nashville to train and pursue his dreams of being a high-level student-athlete. As an educator of 20 years, I would highly recommend TPH for elite student-athletes."

"Once in COE, he found he really liked the independence in academics, being able to control his progress... He applied those principles to his lifestyle year round and became a solid overall athlete. Last year Luke also began to play Field Hockey. His athleticism and work ethic allowed him to earn a position on the US Men's Team. He applied all the experience he learned from COE to Field Hockey and set his sights on international play and as a future Olympian."

"I wanted to write to tell you how much of an impact Matt Cooke has made with our son, Landon. Landon has looked up to Matt since day one and has sought him out to talk through situations, not only on the ice but also off the ice. Matt has continued to invest his time, knowledge, and wisdom in Landon and help him navigate difficult situations. Matt came to watch one of Landon’s tournament games and stayed after the game to connect with Landon and talk through the game. His belief in our son and motivational talk meant the world to us and Landon."

"As early as the first showcase, I noticed a change in the way he skated. He seemed to be more in command of the ice and moved in a way I hadn't seen before."
TPH Center of Excellence Grand Rapids | Parent of Kyle
"At first, we were hesitant about our sons missing out on the typical high school “experience,” but realized everyone’s path was different and it ultimately provided things our local school could not (especially flexibility with travel schedules.) What really swayed us towards TPH was the flexibility for travel, high rigor classes available, support of learning coaches, high-level training and workouts built into the day, and the availability of full lunch to accommodate busy schedules."

"Brandon has become a more confident and stronger player due to TPH. Transferring from a town with its own elite hockey school and program, TPH offered him the ability to continue his personal development at a high level."

"Without question, TPH Detroit has contributed greatly to our son’s hockey development over the past 2 years. He has matured and grown as a person, and we have witnessed clear, tangible improvements in his overall performance on the ice. Simply put, he is a different hockey player from the day he arrived at TPH Detroit. Our son’s passion for the game is higher than ever, and we are excited to watch him pursue his goal of playing higher level hockey in the future. Our sincere appreciation for the professionalism and efforts of the entire TPH Detroit staff!"

"This past year was my son’s first year at TPH. It was a great experience for him. He has grown tremendously both with his hockey skills as well as academically. I love the small class sizes both on and off the ice. This allows the coaches to give individual attention to each of the players. I also loved how we didn’t have to worry about school while traveling for hockey. If you’re looking for your child to improve their hockey skills I would highly recommend TPH. "

"TPH has been essential in our son's skill development on the ice. I feel like his competence in skating and skill development is directly attributed to the time and coaching he receives at TPH. In addition to the improvement on the ice, the academics have pushed our son to take more accountability in his education. The classes challenge him and we have seen a marked improvement in his proficiency in the classroom subjects. One of our favorite aspects of the program is the staff and their commitment to developing mentally and physically strong student-athletes."

"TPH Academy has been an amazing opportunity for Ty to improve his hockey skills as an athlete, and to gain confidence and independence academically as a student. Athletically, Ty has been able to generalize his hockey skills from drills to games as he continues to show physical and mental growth in the sport. Academically, he has become more independent and an advocate for himself by contacting teachers and academic advisors when he needs support. Ty has learned many skills that will help him be successful as an adult. One of the best things about the Academy is the patience that the TPH staff has had with Ty, meeting him where he is at skill-wise, and building a trusting relationship with him. With this relationship, they are supporting Ty as a young man who is gaining confidence and seeing hockey as more than just a sport to play."

"Enrolling in TPH this year was the best decision we made for our son’s hockey development. The difference in his personal growth in the past few months has been remarkable and we can’t wait to watch him continue to grow. The dedication to mentorship and the direct communication with the TPH staff has been far superior in every aspect. "
TPH Center of Excellence St. Louis | Parent of Jack
"Our son has progressed from A1 to AA and will now be playing AAA this next season! He’s motivated to elevate his game and being surrounded by other athletes and dedicated coaches and mentors has pushed him to work hard. We also value the way the teachers, coaches and mentors encourage personal growth. "
