Cleveland Barons Hockey

The Cleveland Barons Elite Development Program

Since 1996, the Cleveland Barons Organization has helped developed some of the top hockey talent in the country with over 160+ NCAA Division I alumni and 19 NHL draft picks. Today, we continue our strong development model by fielding multiple teams, at different playing levels — Barons Elite, Barons Black and Lady Barons — at almost every age level.   The Barons Elite teams play in the Tier 1 Elite League, where as the Barons Black and Lady Barons teams play an independent, competitive schedule tailored for each particular team.   Regardless of team, we teach all of our Barons boys and girls to play with passion, dignity, and tenacity, so they can someday reach their hockey goals.   In the words of the late, great Barons Coach Tim Alexander, “We are going to make you do things you don’t want to do, so that you can become the player you want to be.”
