About the Seattle Junior Mets Development Rep Program
Seattle Junior Hockey Association is pleased to announce the Seattle Junior Mets Development Rep Program for the 2024-2025 season.
Development Focused: Development Rep is a blended concept: competition and growth. This program will expose players to the competitive hockey necessary to matriculate to the next level while infusing resources to center their individual skill development.
Investing In Ice Time: Starting in the 2023-2024 season our Development Rep teams will be on the ice two times a week for practice for 1.25 hour slot with their team and one the ice once a week with Hockey Director Marty Rubin for an individual skills session. This will bring better balance between skill development and team practice time. We expect that the investment of ice time for players will pay off in their skating, stick skills, and overall physical fitness.
High Expectations: Our Development Rep requires a high level of commitment from all players. Practices will be mandatory and travel expectations will be set by coaches ahead of the season. Off ice training will be expected from all players before and during the season. The revamped OVA gym will be a key space for players to develop strength, speed, flexibility, and mobility throughout the season.
