With the new half ice structure for our 7 and 8 year olds fully implemented for next season (Hockey Canada Mandate), we are pleased to be planning a “full time” Novice MD/Select (2011 birth dates) for the upcoming season.  As per Hockey Canada guidelines, this team will be selected in the Fall of 2019 and operate a development / semi competitive program outside of the regular House League programming.  The first half season will continue as a half-ice development program, with our team moving to Full Ice after the Christmas Break.  Coaching applications for this team will be opened on March 1 to allow for planning for the season ahead.  

Yesterday, Flamborough Minor Hockey posted an update on their website regarding changes they are looking to implement for the upcoming season. On February 13th the association will be voting to change Member Partners from the OMHA to the Alliance. We have reached out to the OMHA for guidance on how this may affect the AMHL, as we see potential impacts on our players who are currently playing as NRPs in Flamborough, as well as members of our neighboring associations (Dundas for example). As we receive further information, we will seek to keep you informed.
