About Us
Victory Honda AAA Hockey (VH) is based in Plymouth, Michigan, and is a non-profit 501-c3 organization.
Since 2005, Victory Honda AAA Hockey (VH) has been dedicated to developing our student-athletes to their maximum potential through highly experienced coaching and advanced training methods. We are committed to excellence and strive for success.
Victory Honda plays and practices at the 2018 renovated Victory Ice Center. Our program includes eight boys teams from U10 to U18 and competes at the highest level of USA Hockey. Our national-bound teams (14U-18U) compete each year in the Michigan Amateur Hockey State Playoffs with the opportunity to advance to the Tier I National Championships. Tier I AAA hockey is the most highly scouted and recruited youth division which produces the most players for non-pay-to-play junior leagues such as the USHL, NAHL, BCHL, AJHL, and CHL.
Because we are development driven, we support and implement USA Hockey’s American Development Model (ADM). Our current coaches include former college players, former college coaches, and former NHL players creating a staff that offers top-level coaching to all VH athletes. Our staff has trained and developed hundreds of athletes who have reached Collegiate, Junior, and Professional levels.
Notable VH alumni currently playing in the NHL: Alex DeBrincat, Jaxson Stauber, Ian Cole (2x Stanley Cup Winner), Mat Roy, Nick Blankenburg.
