A primary emphasis of both the Trail Smoke Eaters and the BCHL is education and developing these young men to be successful on and off the ice. The Smoke Eaters are proud of the focus placed on education to help our players move forward with a successful education experience through hockey at important Universities in Canada and the United States. Throughout the years, the Trail Smoke Eaters have assisted numerous players with NCAA, U-Sport and Division 3 - NCAA scholarships.
