The North American Prospects Hockey League (NAPHL) is pleased to announce a series entitled Previewing the NAPHL. Over the course of the next two weeks, the North American Prospects Hockey League (NAPHL) will preview each of the organizations in the NAPHL for the 2016-17 season. Each day, leading all the way up to the first event of the season at the NAHL Showcase in Blaine, MN, the league will feature a different organization and take a look at their teams.
 
Northern Cyclones
Location: Hudson, New Hampshire
Member Since: 2016
Teams: 18U, 16U, 15U
Coaching Staff: 18U/16U Frank O’Connor, 15U Jon Lizzotte

On March 30, 2016, the NAPHL announced the addition of the Northern Cyclones. The Cyclones organization, which is located in Hudson, New Hampshire, has a strong tradition and fields a variety of teams at several levels. Besides the 18U and 16U Midget Tier I teams that will compete in the NAPHL, the Cyclones also have two Tier III Junior teams in the Eastern Hockey League (EHL) and youth hockey select teams at the Midget 18U, Midget 16U, Bantam, Peewee, and Squirt and other various levels, as well as, the Lady Cyclones 12U, 16U, and 18U teams. The Cyclones have a long tradition of advancing their youth players to junior and college programs and beyond. The Northern Cyclones are excited to be a part of the NAPHL for the 2016-2017 season. Our U18 team has a good core of returners along with newcomers and players moving up from our U16 team. Our U16 team is a fairly new group, but we were able to bring back three of our top players from last year and move up a few U15 players. We are excited to attend the Blaine Showcase in the next month.
