2016 Team Openings (Full Time Goalie only)
Our MN Thundercats AAA summer hockey program is based in Eagan, MN with practices and scrimmages held in Eagan, Inver Grove Heights, Burnsville, Apple Valley, Lakeville, Rosemount, St Paul, West St Paul, and other parts of the South Metro Twin Cities area.
Plans for our 2026 MN Thundercats program are now under way.
Our primary goal is to continue developing our players and improving their fundamental hockey skills. We are looking to expand our teams and provide multiple teams in each age group, especially at the younger levels.
Also on our list for summer 2026 is to expand our girls program by having both a 10u girls and 8u girls team.
In addition, we want to have competitive game play that brings out the best in our players and improves their overall game awareness.
