We want to inform you that registration for the upcoming season is currently ongoing. We are pleased to offer last year's rates at $220 per player until November 25. After this date, rates will be adjusted to the current cost of $235.

In our U8, U10, U12 and U14 divisions, registration has been set up to accommodate 45 players per municipality. This will allow for 3 teams from Barrie, Innisfil, and Bradford. Once these divisions reach capacity (estimated late December), we will reach out to families to inquire on who would be interested in moving their child into our new rep division. Our goal is to eventually have all higher-level players in their own division to ensure fair play for all.

Also, a reminder on the new OBHF ruling. Players are more than welcome to play in multiple or surrounding leagues; however, you cannot attend provincial tryouts or compete with another league outside of your geographical territory. An updated map along with further information will be made available shortly.

We look forward to another successful season ahead.

We are excited to announce that registration for our upcoming summer season is now available on our website. The season will run exclusively on Thursday evenings from July 11 to September 19, with all games taking place at the Stroud and Thornton arenas.

Please note that spots are limited, and registration will end on June 15 or when the divisions fill up, so be sure to secure your spot as soon as possible.

We are offering the following divisions for this season:

U8 (2016-2017)
U10 (2014-2015)
U12 (2012-2013)
U14 (2010-2011)
U16 (2008-2009)

We encourage all interested players to register early to guarantee their spot in the league and avoid missing out on the summer fun. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or need assistance with the registration process.
