Chuck Verdolino
Founder & Lead Instructor
Hockey has been a centerpiece of my life since childhood. I played Tier 1 travel hockey for Suffolk County P.A.L. (Long Island) from Squirts-Midget. During my teenage years, I attended St. Anthony’s High School (South Huntington, NY), where I played varsity from sophomore-senior year. I was the Assistant Captain during my junior year, and Captain during my senior year. During this time, I was also scouted to play in the United States Hockey Select 15 Player Development Camp.
Following college, I stayed involved with hockey on a professional level, working as a public relations director andgeneral manager across minor league teams.
I am the pioneer and lead instructor of the CV3 Hockey Development Program; running on-ice power skating and skills clinics, as well as off-ice training sessions, private power skating lessons, private hockey skills lessons, spring programs, tournament teams, and school holiday and summer camps. I currently run the CV3 Hockey Development program out of Patriot Ice Center in Newark, DE and the Fred Rust Arena on the University of Delaware campus. I return to Long Island periodically throughout the year, to run skills clinics in Port Washington, NY. I look forward to the opportunity to work with your players in the very near future.
