Balint spent four years with OHA UK in Swindon as an international student. The outstanding management of the program and the personal care what we received gave me complete confidence as a parent that my son was in a good and safe place during the years. The billet families were great and helped him to develop social awareness and how to adopt to a new environment. The program ideally combines an outstanding high school experience with a strong ice-hockey training designed in Canada. My son ended up with A-level results which gave him the possibility to go for a good collage program and the hockey brought him to a good Swedish junior team in his gap year. The winning team spirit and the culture of everyday hard work gave a tool to my son how to be successful in any challenge in his life. Ryan as Head Coach has a great sensitivity how to handle and talk to those boys and to guide them into the desired direction to mature as a man. Over all positive outcomes my son made great friends had fun and had a lovely four years. I'll be always thankful for Paul and Ryan that they treated my son as their own and gave him so much during the years. Thanks for all!

The program is amazing, but it will only work if the players are committed. It is hard work for the boys but offers so many opportunities. The benefits for Matt are obvious and the program does what it sets out to do; enable young athletes to stretch themselves and reach their potential, not only on the ice but also personally and academically.

OHA taught Mac how to be a 'professional' on and off the ice. The environment raised his game in all aspects. The result; playing amongst the top level players in Finland.
