Wow quite the pissing match here. Most top agencies are recruiting top kids 13-15. If they wait till 18 their all taken, its that simple. Y funnel business model put in 100 kids at the top and pro deals will come out. Its simple economics and business model! If a top agency has 500 Mil TO 1 bil US of clients at 4-5% 20-50 mil income that you will spend a portion of offering your services to young kids. Not to be condescending to the basher on here but its a part of hockey that 98% of parents will never come across at the ages of 13-16! Do your DD as a parent or poster on here is all i say. What a agency can offer you in terms of training, nutrition sports phycology ect as a parent would cost you $1000's

you should not be paying if your kid is spotted by a agent
watching games he/she will contact you either via the coach
or directly, this generally happens at u14 or maybe u13 if kid is a stud. Good agencies include but not in any particular order are Newport, Octagon, Caa, Wasserman, Quartexx
There are some more but make sure they are NHLPA
plenty floating around that are not.

They are parasites but good because they are desperate to get into the game. Take them for what you can get, give them nothing.

If you aren't looking for OHL route, but thinking NCAA is there a material difference between Agent and Advisor? Thought you couldn't have an "Agent" because of compensation structure if you were going NCAA
