BCHL announces partnership with Eligibility Wizard Inc.

The BC Hockey League (BCHL) Board of Governors unanimously voted in favour of a partnership with Eligibility Wizard Inc. at the league’s recent Annual General Meeting.

Eligibility Wizard Inc. is an online solution for aspiring college student athletes, teams and educational advisors to ensure they are meeting all the necessary academic requirements to earn an opportunity to move on to NCAA hockey.

“The BCHL prides itself on developing athletes on and off the ice while providing them with the resources required to further their athletic careers and reach their educational goals,” said BCHL Deputy Commissioner Steven Cocker. “We are extremely excited to partner with Eligibility Wizard to ensure our athletes are NCAA compliant and set them up for success at the next level.”

In 2019-20, the BCHL set a league record with 196 college-committed players, including 179 to NCAA programs.

The BCHL produces more college-bound athletes than any other junior hockey league in Canada.

“We are excited to work with the BCHL and its student athletes,” said Eligibility Wizard CEO Peter Torsson. “The BCHL has a rich tradition of placing student athletes into the NCAA and that was important to us. Much like the BCHL brand, those of us at Eligibility Wizard Inc. pride ourselves in service excellence. Our hope is to provide a solution that not only clarifies NCAA academic eligibility but also enables BCHL players a strengthened likelihood of playing college hockey.”
