About SoFlo Hockey Showcases
SoFlo Hockey Showcases was created in 2023 in order to provide players access and exposure to various hockey opportunities across the United States (i.e. Prep Schools, Hockey Academies, Junior Hockey Programs, NCAA D1/D3 Schools).
This is achieved by bringing teams and coaches down to South Florida to interact with players and their families in an intimate setting. In addition to on-ice exposure with the coaches themselves, players and families alike will gain invaluable access to coaches off the ice, in 1-on-1 and group settings.
There are 3 main purposes to all our showcases:
1. Provide players with the opportunity to showcase themselves in front of prospective coaches.
2. Allow players and families the opportunity to meet and network with these coaches.
3. Provide players and families with an educational experience through our seminars, which will allow them to make informed decisions as they navigate the hockey landscape.

What People Have to Say about Soflo Hockey Showcases…
Tim Joncas- Head Coach Westminster Varsity Hockey
“The SoFlo Prep School Showcase was a great opportunity for us coaches to scout the impressive hockey talent that South Florida has to offer, as well as meet many great families. Being able to skate alongside the players and chat with parents in a 1-on-1, as well as group, setting was invaluable. We look forward to seeing many of these faces join the Prep School ranks for years to come.”
Felipe C.- Father of 2009 and 2011 Goalies
“Having a son who has played competitive hockey for many years, I’m used to the camps and showcases where there is little interaction off ice, if any, with coaches. At the 2024 SoFlo Prep School Showcase, not only did my son get quality time with coaches on ice, but he also got to interact and understand how they ran their teams and the New England Prep Hockey world. It was a game-changer that has my son on the precipice of being admitted to his dream New England Prep School. Thanks SoFlo!”
Seppo K. - Father of 2010 Forward
“SoFlo Prep Showcase was excellent! My son enjoyed the drills and told me he learned more during the showcase than during months of his regular practices. Through the prep school introductions and school information session I got a really good understanding on how they operate and combine hockey and academics.”
Elias K.- 2010 Forward
“This showcase was awesome not only on the ice, but also off the ice. On the ice, they did many different drills and games that show your skill in different ways, for example your hockey IQ. Off the ice they hosted a prep school informational meeting. In the meeting it included information about how most prep schools work and what benefits the schools bring. Overall, this showcase was a great way to get more familiar with prep schools.”
