Reflecting on another year of commitment and dedication, we are striving forward to prepare and deliver continued positive experiences for all those who participate in Hockey within our jurisdiction. As hockey volunteers and administrators, we sign up because we have a passion for all of the moments that make our sport more than just a game and like the rest of the world, we couldn’t have predicted what this season would bring us. While we didn’t get to see who was crowned with an OHF or Recreational League Championship, or who would go on to win the Allan, Centennial, Esso and TELUS Cups, it is seasons like this that need to ignite and drive our stakeholders to move forward together – for the love of the game that we missed in early-2020. Our communities and hockey programs are extremely fortunate to have a multitude of volunteers who dedicate countless hours to ensuring our participants are provided with quality hockey programs and enjoyable experiences. Strength and growth of our won- derful game lies within the participation of our overall membership, and with that we encourage all, parents, or interested fans to volunteer and try to contribute to your local organization or club in anyway possible. On behalf of your Board of Directors, we look forward to bringing the game back to Ontario with you.

  • Local Boxers Pack a Punch
    45 C Dr. Douglas Smith Guest columnist December 1, 2016 Drug-free athletes • Week This SPORTS have the edge It is critical for elite athletes to make sure their body and mind are healthy and in tip-top shape. By developing and maintaining a drug- free lifestyle, one can increase the chanc- es of creating optimum performance. Most of the athletes, coaches and par- ents we have worked with over the last three decades have learned to appreci- ate the benefits of a drug-free philosophy and experience. Young athletes learn primarily from observing the habits of their heroes. If these key role models rely on drugs to get them through daily activities and dif- ficult situations, young athletes will tend to follow in their footsteps. Adolescent athletes tend to copy what they see and ignore what they are told. This is especially true when the expert’s Photo courtesy Way Productions actions conflict with the advice given.

  • Observational Analysis of Injury in Youth Ice Hockey: Putting Injury Into Context by CHARLES BOYER Bsc. H.K., University of Ot
    Observational Analysis of Injury in Youth Ice Hockey: Putting Injury into Context by CHARLES BOYER Bsc. H.K., University of Ottawa, 2008 THESIS Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies for the degree of Master’s of Arts in Human Kinetics School of Human Kinetics University of Ottawa 2011 © Charles Boyer, Ottawa, Canada, 2011 ABSTRACT This study examines injury in competitive bodychecking and non-bodychecking youth ice hockey in male and female leagues in Ontario and Quebec. The study involved quantifying the amount of injuries, but also documenting the situational factors in which hockey injuries occur to better understand how and why injuries are occurring. The research utilized a mixed method approach consisting of game observation, postgame injury assessments and semi-structured interviewing with parents. In total 56 games were attended and a total of 16 parents from the bodychecking team were interviewed. All games were video recorded through a dual camera video system. Game footage was then analyzed frame- by-frame to pinpoint injury locations, points of impact and situational factors surrounding the injury. Results from the research revealed; 1) a disproportionately higher rate of injury in bodychecking hockey compared to non-bodychecking male and female hockey; 2) the combination of player and board contact in bodychecking hockey is the primary mechanism of injury; 3) most injuries occur on legal play; and 4) parental perceptions of bodychecking and injury show that players do not naturally accept bodychecking
