JIFH is an elite, championship caliber travel club with a long history of success. Our club attends all the major college National showcases and has helped numerous athletes attend the colleges of their choice (see our Alumni section). Intensity has garnered medals in every major tournament hosted by USAFH and Shooting Star.
The staff of Jersey Intensity is made up of passionate, elite level coaches with high school, collegiate and international experience. We pride ourselves in having a low coach/player ratio. Our head coaches have been with the club since its inception and travel hundreds of miles every week to coach at our weekend training sessions and tournaments. They are dedicated and committed to the improvement of every player's skill level and as well as their hockey IQ. We coach to prepare you for the higher levels of the college game. Goalies work with specialty goalkeeping coaches each session, in most cases having three GK coaches per session!
In addition to aiding athletes in achieving collegiate play, JIFH has had representation at all levels of our USA National squads, from the U17 National Squad up to the Senior National Squad.
Jersey Intensity also offers Academy training opportunities for those players wishing to improve their skills in a competitive but fun environment. This Academy is designed for young players first learning the game (U-12 and U-14) or for older players (U-16/U-19) who need more time developing and honing their skills before they are ready to move up to one of our championship level National travel teams. It is also for the player who wants to train with our ELITE level coaching staff but who cannot commit to National tournaments. U12/U14/U16/U19 Tournament opportunities will be available primarily in winter and spring/early summer.
We traditionally have 2-3 try-outs a year (if you miss a trial, email Kathleen to arrange coming to a practice for an evaluation as we will evaluate newcomers throughout the year).
The U12/U14/U16 and U19 traveling teams will be entered into the following events (note: teams may be different for each event, selection to one does not guarantee all):
