(Dec. 14 2025) As stated in the mission of Notre Dame College Prep, Dons represent people that respect and have compassion for the community as well as those with differences in culture, learning ability and physical challenges.  To that end, a cornerstone tradition of the NDCP Hockey Program each year has been centered around community service - a chance for our athletes to give back and focus on developing off the ice.

Our 2025 club volunteered their time at Misericordia Heart of Mercy in Chicago, a leading community of care to maximize persons with mild to profound disabilities. Our players, staff and parents served Misericordia's annual Christmas Brunch to community members and family.  From the kitchen, to the wait staff and cleaning crew, our Ice Dons put away the gloves and got their hands dirty for a good cause.

Being a Don is about more than winning.  It's about becoming the best possible person you can be.  About putting faith into action giving service to society.

(Dec. 13, 2025) NDCP hockey held a special event to honor the teachers and staff of NDCP.  Varsity and JV played back-to-back games at Heartland on a cold Saturday afternoon while many school staffers came out to support the Ice Dons. 

Staff were welcomed with some free hockey swag and took part in a on ice photos before the game.   A special raffle was awarded as well.

Without these incredibly supportive staff, the life of an athlete at Notre Dame College Prep would be difficult.  To the many teachers and staff members of NDCP, thank you from NDCP Hockey for all you do!

(Nov. 15, 2025) The Notre Dame College Prep Hockey Club hosted a special skate for 7th and 8th grade hockey players from around the Chicagoland area at Skokie Skatium on November 15th.  Players skated with NDCP coaches and learned about the program. This special skate was held before NDCP's Varsity team took on Highland Park in a IHSHL-North Central Champions league game.  The Dons took home the W, 7-1 while skate attendees got to see, up close, what the pride of high school hockey is all about. 

This 7th/8th grade skate was the first for two events this season.  Stay tuned to NDCPhockey.org for updates on the Spring event.  And if at anytime you'd like to learn more about Dons Hockey, reach out to ndcphockey@gmail.com.
