ABOUT the minutemen

For over 25 years, the Valley Forge Minutemen have been the Tier I AAA program at Oaks Center Ice. Our players train with experienced coaches, compete against top teams, and step into environments that prepare them for juniors, prep, and college hockey. It’s a program built to develop athletes at the highest level while giving families a culture grounded in respect, discipline, and growth on and off the ice.

OUR MISSION

At Valley Forge Minutemen, our goal is simple:

To develop well-rounded athletes who grow as players and as people, while creating the best overall hockey experience.

PLAYERS AND
PARENTS ARE
SAYING…

The Minutemen coaching staff has real experience at the highest levels, and it shows. They know how to challenge our kids without burning them out.

AAA hockey is about more than skill. It’s about the habits, the discipline, and the team-first attitude that carry these players forward.

What stands out to me is how much respect the kids have for each other. My son is working harder than ever, but he’s doing it with a group of teammates that support each other and feel like family.

We want kids who respect the game, work hard, and love being part of a team. When you have that, the opportunities take care of themselves.

BECOME A BILLET FAMILY

Hosting a Minutemen player is about more than opening your home—it’s about being part of their journey. Billet families provide a stable, supportive environment that helps athletes thrive while they compete at the highest level of youth hockey.
