Which Division is my child in?

Your child's birth year will determine their appropriate division.

Children born between 2014 and 2017 must register in our Hockey School Program instead of House League.

If the division that you are trying to register for is full, please contact registrar@leasidehockey.com if you'd like to be added to the waitlist.

Our House League offers:

• Players in the U9 (Novice) and U10 (Minor Atom) divisions will participate in weekly, 1 hour practices, run by professional coaches. Practices will focus on skills development and the fundamentals of hockey.
• Players in the U11 (Atom), U12 (Minor PeeWee), U13 (PeeWee), U14 (Minor Bantam), and U15 (Bantam) divisions will participate in 1 hour weekly practices run by their volunteer coach.
• All players participate in 1 hour games, which are played on the weekend. Shortly after the holiday break (depending on the number of teams in a division) all teams will start a round robin series, which culminates with our year end Championship Weekend.  All teams will participate in Championship Weekend and all players will receive a commemorative puck.
• To ensure that all players have the best possible hockey experience, teams may be rebalanced early in the season.
• All players will receive a LHA jersey and socks, as well as a LHA team/individual photo.

The early bird registration fee for 2021-2022 hockey school and house league is $675 if you register on or before July 31. If you register on August 1 or later, the fee is $700.

Leaside Hockey Association 2021 / 2022 Refund Policy

The LHA may be required to modify or suspend our programming as a result of circumstances beyond our control, including but not limited to:

• Directives from local, provincial or federal governments or corresponding health authorities;
• An outbreak of COVID-19 within the Leaside Hockey community (players, families, arena staff, external service providers, etc.);
• Changes in rules, regulations, insurance coverage and other issues by our governing hockey bodies;
• Ice facilities becoming unusable temporarily or permanently due to COVID-19 related closures, fires, mechanical failure, labour disruption or weather-related events

The LHA will make every effort to respond to and mitigate the impact of any unforeseen circumstances as they arise.  To the extent that a cancellation, suspension, reduction or variation in programming is required the LHA will make best efforts to provide refunds to the extent it is practicable* and commits to at all times act on a good faith basis.

Players and families will be required to follow certain mandated protocols designed to promote safety in our LHA programs, which might include (but are not limited to) thermal scans, self-reporting/quarantine, medical questionnaires, etc. Failure to adhere to the required protocols may result in prohibition from participating in LHA programming. In such circumstances, players may not be eligible for a refund.

Refunds will not be provided for injury or illness-related reasons.

*NOTE - the LHA is a not-for-profit organization run largely by volunteers.  The LHA’s predominant expense (~80%) is related to the procurement of ice for use in our program.  Participant insurance costs and league fees represent a further ~10% of total LHA expenses.  For the 2021 / 22  season, the LHA has made every effort to include, where possible, contractual provisions (“COVID-19 Clauses”) which provide for a refund or credit of unused ice costs in the event that the involved arena/facility becomes inaccessible due to circumstances beyond the LHA’s control.
