Develop. Advise. Advance.
The Trusted Pathway to the Next Level
At Valor Hockey Group Management (VHG Management), our mission is to guide and support hockey players through every step of their athletic journey. Founded by Kevin Leary, a current scout for the NAHL’s Mountain Kings, VHG is built on the principles of honest advising, elite-level connections, and long-term development. We work with players and families who are serious about advancement—providing hands-on mentorship, placement guidance, and access to programs that get results.
Our team includes NCAA athletes, junior veterans, pro-level coaches, and recruiting specialists who know the process inside and out. Whether you're working toward junior hockey, NCAA exposure, or professional opportunities, our advisors are here to build the right plan and open the right doors. Through direct support, detailed strategy, and a deep network of trusted connections, we help players not only get to the next level—but succeed when they get there.

Humble
Beginnings
Valor Hockey Group began as a small, focused hockey tournament and consulting firm with a clear mission: to create high-level, meaningful opportunities for dedicated players. What started with helping athletes navigate junior and college placement through trusted guidance and small-scale events quickly gained traction. Our early success was built on honest relationships, quality advising, and a sharp understanding of what players and families truly need in a competitive hockey landscape.
As demand grew, so did our vision. We expanded into on-ice development through the launch of Valor Development Camps, offering elite training led by NCAA athletes, pro coaches, and advisors. Our programs now include private skill sessions, full-service management through VHG, and exposure-driven summer leagues — all under one unified brand.
