This is the first collaboration between Junior and Minor hockey in the Ottawa area in the past 5 years,
though discussions began in 2010 and continued in 2013. Both groups are coming together to create a
development path with more opportunities for players aged 15, 16 and 17 of AAA caliber. In a
collaborative effort, the players will benefit from a revised catchment area model, different then
boundaries and zones, which will allow more players to play as close to home as possible reducing travel
and cost for families. The teams participating in the league will operate under the current ODMHA
Minor Hockey rules and discipline codes. Games will be hosted through showcases on Monday nights
and Saturday’s to increase the players exposure to scouts for future opportunities in Junior, NCAA and
OHL.
