Season Calendar for 2024-25
For the 2024-25 season, Ancaster Minor Hockey is excited to be offering up to 22 weeks of programming. We will begin in mid September and wrap up with Championship Weekend on March 1 - 2, 2025.
Take note that there will be up to two interruptions during the coming season due to tournaments taking place in the area requiring the use of our rinks.
For the holiday break, there will be no programming on the weekend of Dec 28 - 29, but we will return to the ice on Jan 4 - 5, 2025.
