OMHA Announcement regarding Novice & Below Hockey
The Ontario Minor Hockey Association has created an Implementation Guide to support our member Centres with the delivery of the Programming Novice & Below including Seasonal Structure and Cross-Ice & Half-Ice game play.

Hockey Canada has established national guidelines to ensure development of hockey players at Initiation, Tyke and Novice age divisions and it is important to fully understand and appreciate the benefits of age-appropriate programming and scaling the playing environment.



To view the OMHA page directly and the Implementation Guide, please click on the following link:

The Pelham Minor Hockey Association is committed to adhering to the new programming designed by Hockey Canada, as well as the OHF and the OMHA, and the PMHA will be taking the required steps to meet these new standards including altering our own in-house programming.

Please stay tuned for further details.  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact:
