BREAKING: There Will Be No Hockey Tryouts This Spring

Typically, almost all minor hockey and Junior tryouts begin in the spring, with the bulk of rosters being solidified in April.

Monday, the Ontario Hockey Federation announced that all spring tryouts will be cancelled.

“The health and safety of all participants in the sport is of the utmost importance to the OHF and its member partners. As such, tryouts for the 2020-21 season will not be conducted this Spring. Instead the OHF will provide guidance on when the introduction of the 2020-21 season will begin, subject to the Hockey Canada Board of Directors’ future decision when to reinstate all Hockey Canada-sanctioned activities. Such introduction will take into consideration ice availability, capacity and other logistics involved in organizing hockey programs.”

With this information, it seems certain that the 2020-2021 hockey season will not start on time.
