The Nashville Jr. Predators Mite Development Program (MDP) is built to provide the opportunity develop fundamental movement skills, general athleticism, and begin to learn and acquire basic hockey skills (skating, puck control, passing and receiving, shooting, body contact, and goaltending) in an environment that is safe and fun.

To maximize each player’s opportunity to learn and develop skill, the MDP consists of multiple teams of around 10 skaters and 1 goalie. Teams typically practice two times a week with professional coaching and play half ice games. The goal of all MDP programming is centered around the players having FUN as well as improve the players love for the game of Hockey!

The MDP teams will compete in in home and away tournaments in cities such as Nashville, Knoxville, Huntsville, Atlanta, and other locations relatively close in proximity to Nashville.
