What Our CoE Families Are Saying
"TPH Academy Superior has provided my son with a comprehensive academic and athletic environment that has challenged him and supported him these past few years. The versatile academic options and willingness of the Head of Academics have allowed him to pursue higher level and college preparatory coursework. Mrs. Doman has enabled him to access needed electives, provided pathways to socially interact with local high school peers, and participate in worthwhile community service projects. TPH’s program and athletic training have provided an amazing opportunity to ensure our son's optimal athletic performance, created advanced hockey skills and developed a goal-oriented mindset. Lastly, the friendships he has developed and the memories of the TPH will last a lifetime."

"If your child is a self starter motivated by hockey, you can't beat TPH. If you want your child to learn about life through the sport of hockey, you can't beat TPH. Without a doubt, there is no other place in the state that could possibly provide the environment and be of that inherent needed dynamic for my son."
TPH Center of Excellence Denver | Parent
"What I love about TPH are its leadership and mentorship programs. The academics are great, they are all NCAA-certified classes that they are taking. But the leadership is par none. It is raising these boys and girls to be leaders out in the community and wherever they end up."

"The 2021-2022 school year was Ryan's first year at TPH. After the headaches and struggles of trying to navigate hockey travel, practices, and a traditional in-person school schedule, TPH was a fantastic fit for our family. Our family has enthusiastically re-enrolled Ryan in TPH and are looking forward to an even better year in 2022-2023 as we will be able to put what we learned last year about Ryan's athletics and academics into practice."
TPH Center of Excellence Denver | Parent of Ryan Mitchell
"TPH Academy has been a phenomenal experience for both our son and my wife and me. The Domans are extraordinary people who demonstrate daily how much they care about the synergy and importance between education and athletics. They are great role models and care about the children they assist. The TPH program has provided our son opportunities to take college-level courses while still a freshman and sophomore; therefore advancing his opportunities to move forward in pursuing his passions."

BUILDING THE TPH
ATHLETE
The TPH Center of Excellence training program is designed for aspiring elite student-athletes who are willing to invest their time and effort into personal growth. At TPH we recognize that individual skill focus often gets neglected due to busy competition schedules, lack of facility accessibility after academic hours, and team-centric coaching.
TPH is focused on long-term student-athlete development by providing platforms that allow each individual to discover new levels of potential. Learn more about how our student-athletes in Superior train for their sport.
Frequently Asked Questions
The TPH Center of Excellence is NOT a team. We are an academy that allows you to focus on your individual skills. Additionally, you can still play for your current team. This makes for an awesome training environment where our student-athletes get to build a community with like-minded student-athletes.
At the TPH Center of Excellence our student-athletes benefit from multiple layers of support. At the foundation, is the Colorado State Certified Teachers who teach virtually through the Edmentum platform. Additionally, students-athletes are surrounded by support including access to virtual tutors and our Center of Excellence has a Head of Academics and Success Coach(es) on-site every day to ensure student-athletes stay on task, help them find the resources they need, and help cultivate an environment conducive to learning.
TPH - Superior has partnered with Impact Sports Training for our off-ice training program. They have a wide variety of training opportunities including, but not limited to, yoga, boxing, speed, strength and agility training.
Superior students-athletes have access to a refrigerator and microwave to bring their own lunch as well as a meal plan available through the Angry Horse Eatery located inside the Sport Stable.
This is one of the primary benefits of the TPH Center of Excellence. The traditional system is not conducive to the lifestyle of the aspiring elite student-athlete. We are very flexible with our attendance policy because we do understand the travel that sports require and the toll that a season can take on a student-athlete. The beauty of our platform is that we can operate virtually. Need a recovery day? Stay home, you can do your course work from home, our staff can additionally send you a home workout. The biggest factor is that we believe our student-athletes get the most out of their experience by attending on-site, but we understand that may not always be possible.
The goal of our mentorship program is to educate our student-athletes on “the process” of becoming elite. Part of that is through the mentorship program which includes Coach FA's Mentorship Program, community service, field trips, and guest speakers.
We believe the TPH Center of Excellence provides more balance as our student-athletes finish a day at the Center of Excellence, attend their club's practice, and then are free the rest of the day. We believe our platform gives our student-athletes more time to spend as they wish away from the Center of Excellence. Additionally we require our student-athletes to fill out daily surveys through Kinduct that help our staff understand the holistic state of our student-athletes. These surveys track sleep, nutrition, injuries, and more to assist us in ensuring we know how to balance their workload.
The TPH Center of Excellence can provide support for IEP's and 504's. We have built our centers with learning environments that help all types of learners and set up our student-athletes for success. However, students will have to complete a determination meeting with our education partner to ensure we can meet all the needs of the student.
