Program Profile: Ulysse Acad茅mie

Located in Saint-Roch-de-l鈥橝chigan, QC, Ulysse Acad茅mie joined the 麻豆传媒入口 (CSSHL) for the 2023/24 Eastern U17 and U18 Prep season.

Ulysse Acad茅mie’s Commitment to Excellence

Ulysse Acad茅mie offers a multi-sport program for girls and boys with hockey as a major sport. Our philosophy is consistent with studies on the detrimental effects of over-specialization and the beneficial effects of developing a varied sports literacy in young people. At the elementary level, our Ulysses students play hockey and are introduced to several other sports. Our high school student-athletes train and compete in hockey (RSEQ et CSSHL), lacrosse, rowing, and mountain biking. Moreover, they do all this without missing school, while being subject to an academic success protocol and achieving numerous behavioural standards. Our post-secondary students focus primarily on hockey (CSSHL and other competitions) and the next steps in their development as students and athletes.

EDUCATION

Our elementary student-athletes attend their local school and our high school students attend the Odyss茅e High School in Terrebonne (Quebec). Post-secondary student-athletes are enrolled in our Grade 12 Pre-University program (which is offered directly at Complexe JC Perreault). At Ulysse Acad茅mie, there is rarely a shortage of academic opportunities allowing student-athletes to play hockey. Practices are after school, and competitions take place on weekends.

听BILLET FAMILIES

Student-athletes who do not come from areas close to our program stay with host families. This allows them to evolve in a family environment that fosters smooth personal, academic and athletic development. For us, placing our youngsters with host families is the best way to provide our Ulysses students with an enriching, safe and secure environment in which to live and socialize.

INJURIES AND MENTAL HEALTH MONITORING听

The support provided to our student-athletes includes monitoring their physical development and state of health. Our program is staffed by experienced therapists and kinesiologists. These professionals accompany our Ulysses students daily and maintain constant communication with parents to ensure optimal treatment and injury prevention. A physiotherapy clinic is located just across the street from the JCPerreault Complex, and hospitals are nearby. These facilities provide follow-up and treatment to our athletes in the event of injury.

听SCHOOL SCHEDULE

School starts at 7:45 a.m. for our high school student-athletes who are studying at 脡cole secondaire de l’Odyss茅e in Terrebonne. On the other hand, classes end at 2:30 p.m. Training (on and off the ice) therefore takes place at the end of the day for them. Our U18 team members are studying grade 12 directly in Complexe JCPerreault. Their program is online, but our student-athletes are supervised by a tutor from Tuesday to Thursday. Their progress is analyzed to ensure that they don’t fall behind schedule. All our students are subject to an academic success protocol. If a student-athlete is unable to comply with it, sanctions involving participation in the program’s sports activities are imposed.

听FACILITIES听

Our program is based at the听. This infrastructure houses two rinks that meet NHL specifications.听 It also houses the Ulysse Acad茅mie offices, a training room and two classrooms. Three locker rooms are reserved for our teams. Our Varsity team’s locker room is the envy of many professional teams. The complex also boasts a restaurant offering an elaborate menu in impressive surroundings. Complexe JC Perreault is in a rapidly developing sector. A physiotherapy clinic and a field hockey center are located across the street, and more construction is planned for the near future. We also use the gymnasiums and outdoor synthetic fields at听. The use of these facilities enables our student-athletes to practice lacrosse and benefit from optimal training. Finally, our rowing activities are held at the听听and our mountain biking activities at the听.
