This is a great opportunity to have your skater try-it-out and see what the Raging Bulls are all about.

If you find that you like the program and the development on the ice,
then we'd love to have you join us for the rest of the spring/summer.
If not, no worries, no obligation.

*Note: summer U12 hockey ages are birth year (Jan. 1st) 1997 and younger.

The RAGING BULLS have expanded their program this year, and are forming a Girls U12 team/camp. We are still looking for a handful or more U12-ish girls (1997 & 1998 birth years) to fill out the team. If you have any questions, you can call Sean Molin (651-470-9394) or Matt Stevens (651-645-5320) and we will do our best to supply you with the info that you need.

About the RAGING BULLS development hockey program...

The Raging Bulls Program is a development program first. We treat all our players like they are top players. The kids understand this and it shows in their confidence. Think of it as a Competitive Hockey Development Program that runs April to August.
We do this because it takes that long to actually have an impact. We play games to observe how the kids apply what they have learned and to coach them to increase their understanding. We want all the kids to play games however it will depend on the number of kids in the program at each age group. Remember that we don't have any "practice" players. All of our players are in the Competitive Hockey Development Program and receive the same attention whether or not they play on our RB’s team or a different metro team.

Professional Instructors:

We have professional instructors on the ice with each team (3 to 4 starting 07 June, with only non-parent coaches).

Herb Brooks Facility (FHIT):

We are finalizing a reduced rate for use of the facility as an option for our players. We will post this information when completed.

Tournaments: We will play in three tournaments per team
Jerseys: Home & Away

Time Frame : April thru Mid-August
Location : Swan's Super Rink Blaine

April : 1x per week 1.5 hour practices on week nights
May - JUN 05 : 1x per week 1.5 hour practices on week nights
JUN 06 - AUG 15 : 2x per week 2.0 hour practices during weekday daytime ( 9am to 3pm)

Summer break from JULY 01 until July 10

No weekend or evening practices during the summer so kids can play other sports without conflicts.

The spring/summer schedules for the RAGING BULLS development hockey program are posted on the RB’s web site (http://www.ragingbullshockey.com/index.html ) for all age groups and goalie camp.

This is a great opportunity to kick the tires on a very unique AAA program. And I say that from experience with this program and with other AAA programs. I have two boys in the program and I would recommend it to others. I would NOT recommend some other programs. And for all the cynics lurking out there, there is NO self-serving nature to this endorsement. Just sharing one family's experience. Sean and his staff are terrific with the kids - great development-focus, great equality of attention. The practices are also during the day, which is a big bonus for us with baseball, soccer, etc. AAA isn't for everyone. And summer hockey development isn't for everyone. But if your daughter is looking for a chance to improve her skills with some terrific coaches, and you want something during the day, this would be a great fit. Give it a try.
