Train • Develop • Compete  

We’re excited to offer the CT Sharks Next Wave Development Program!
Open to 1st, 2nd & 3rd Graders (Boys & Girls)

CT Sharks Next Wave is our foundational feeder program for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade boys and girls. Players develop their skills in a fun, low-pressure environment during the Fall and Winter, with a clear pathway for 3rd graders to evaluate for a competitive Summer 2027 Tournament Team. 

How the Program Works

2nd Grade (2037)	Train Only	Train Only	Train Only (8 practices)
