The WSMHA was advised late last week by the Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville that an ice-making equipment failure at Stouffville Arena will delay the scheduled availability of this facility for several weeks.  While the Clipper Complex is not impacted, the WSMHA requires both facilities for full implementation of our programs. The WSMHA Board is currently assessing the impact of this delay on our plans including potential schedule and fee adjustments.  We will keep you informed as more information becomes available.

Registration for the 2020 - 2021 season is now open. All the information required is located under the Registration tab on our website. There are a few steps to follow in order to complete your registration. Read thru the "Must Read Information & Transfer Procedure " page to see if any of those circumstanaces apply to you.

Introduction
By now most of us have become accustomed to the many uncertainties Covid-19 has brought to our daily lives.  In the midst of all this uncertainty we are very much aware that members of the minor hockey community would welcome some indication of what the upcoming hockey season might look like.  The WSMHA Board has been in constant contact with both municipal authorities and our minor hockey governing bodies over the past four months and based on their input we are now in a position to provide a return- to- play plan for the 2020-21 season.
