Nolan Ambrosino

Co-founder · Youth scouting, emerging prospects, growth projection

Nolan brings a forward-looking view to CADIG, with a particular interest in youth hockey, emerging prospects and long-term player development.

He is studying at the University of Florida, and his scouting centres on how players grow over time rather than how they perform in a single game.

Nolan looks past current size, production and physical maturity to find the traits that will hold up as the speed, structure and difficulty of the game increase.

Background

Currently studying at the University of Florida.

How he scouts

Nolan tracks how a young player is progressing: habits, hockey sense, decision-making, compete level and adaptability, with an eye on what will carry over to stronger competition.

Focus

Spotting development signs early, understanding the player's current environment, and projecting how they may grow with coaching, experience and tougher competition.
