The Tier 1 Hockey Federation (THF) is proud to recognize the 31 players with ties to THF-affiliated programs who were selected in the 2025 USHL Draft across both Phase I and Phase II. This milestone highlights the Federation’s growing impact on elite player development and advancement to the highest levels of amateur hockey in the United States.
A total of 15 players from THF organizations were selected in Phase I of the draft, which targets the 2009 birth year. An additional 16 players were chosen in Phase II, with many of those athletes having previously played for THF or affiliated programs during their youth hockey careers. While not all were drafted directly from THF teams, their foundational development and progression were shaped in part by their time within the Federation’s network.
The United States Hockey League (USHL) is the nation’s top junior league, known for producing NCAA Division I talent and NHL prospects. The presence of 31 players with THF roots in this year’s draft is a clear indicator of the caliber of competition and coaching available across the league.
The THF remains committed to creating a pathway for its athletes to reach the next level, whether that’s junior hockey, college hockey, or beyond. Congratulations to all 31 players on this outstanding accomplishment—your hard work and dedication continue to raise the bar for what’s possible within the Tier 1 Hockey Federation.
