Organization - Hockey Canada Non-Sanctioned Hockey Policy
Submitted By
Brad Bell on Tuesday, October 13, 2020
GMHI members may be asking for exhibition games or to enter in tournaments.
Any game play outside of OMHA Sanctioned events will be considered Non-Sanctioned therefore participation in an event or against any team not sanctioned, will result in the application of the Hockey Canada Non-Sanctioned Policy. All events and teams that are not sanctioned are not part of the OHF Return to Play Framework therefore would be putting all GMHI members at risk.
3. CONSEQUENCES OF SUPPORTING OR PARTICIPATING IN A NON-SANCTIONED LEAGUE
3.1 The OHF will implement the Hockey Canada Non-Sanctioned League Policy and in addition has strengthened the application of that policy as set out below.
3.2 Any individual who Participates in a Non-Sanctioned League, or any minor hockey association which supports such a League, is subject to the following consequences:
3.2.1 Any individual who Participates in a Non-Sanctioned League after the Cut-Off Date will lose all privileges with the Ontario Hockey Federation for the remainder of that season, and, subject to paragraph (3)below, may only apply for the reinstatement of those privileges after the end of that season.
3.2.2 The OHF and its Members across the OHF will make every effort to ensure that local minor hockey associations in areas where Non- Sanctioned Leagues exist are not supporting these Leagues in any manner whatsoever.
