Militia Hockey Club
Since 2011, the East Coast Militia has been at the forefront of elite AAA youth and midget hockey in New England. Founded as a spring and summer showcase program by former Babson College star Nik Tasiopoulos, the Militia quickly established itself as one of the nation’s best showcase teams.
From ages 5-20, in both boys and girls tournaments, the Militia captured numerous spring and summer tournament championships. To this day, the Militia continues to field teams in highly-competitive recruiting tournaments and showcases.
In 2018-2019 the Militia expanded to become New England’s largest midget AAA program. The Militia offers various Tier 1 and Tier 2 National-Bound teams at the U18, U16, U15, U14 and U13 levels.
In 2019-2020 both the Militia and Vikings moved into our brand new home - The Thayer Sports Center in Braintree, Massachusetts.
Today (2025) we have 22 boys teams.
