Peter Ward established Ward Hockey Schools and the Beantown Bullies in 2003 for players who wanted to compete at a high level in the spring and summer time and improve their play over the slow months of hockey without the major commitment of full time status. Since 2008, Peter has been the Assistant Director of Player Personnel of USA Hockey's National Team Development Program www.usahockey.com/usantdp

Peter works in conjunction with Director of Player Personnel Ryan Rezmierski scouting/recruiting the nations top 14, 15 and 16 year olds for the National Program. The NTDP houses the nation's top 45 players from across the United States. The NTDP consists of two national teams, the U.S. National Under-18 Team and the U.S. National Under-17 team, where the program's goal is to prepare student-athletes under the age of 18 for participation on U.S. National Teams and for future hockey careers.

From 2006-08, Peter was the US Director of Central Scouting for the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League http://www.lhjmq.qc.ca/ after serving a year as an area scout. The QMJHL and CHL places about 65% of the draft picks in the NHL every year. Peter was responsible for evaluating, identifying and ranking all the Top 14, 15 and 16 year olds in New England available for the QMJHL Draft. In 2007 Peter was also the New England scout for Red Line Report. Red Line Report Scouting is subscribed by 29 NHL teams, all of Canadian Major Junior Hockey (QMJHL, OHL, WHL) and 60% of all U.S. Colleges.
