- Please be advised there are some issues with the Hockey Canada website and registration. If you are having problems you are not the only one! Unfortunately it cannot be fixed on our end and we will need to wait for it to be fixed at this time - 

Staring July 27 at 9:00am registration for the 2020-2021 season will be open. This registration will be done online only for the time being as the office still remains closed at the arena. 

Please note there is currently no fee attached to the registration as it is unclear what the season will look like. As we have more information we will continue to update here on the website. 

Please email the office with any questions or if you are having problems registering online. 

If you are coming in from another center and are unable to register online please contact the office with your child's name and date of birth.

If your child has never played before please contact the office so that we can create a profile for your child - allowing you to register them online. 

Please be advised - there is no mini watts registration at this time

After much consideration, the CRHL has determined it will not be offering refunds or handing out trophies. We apologize for any inconvenience, and request the understanding of all our parents and players considering the extreme and unprecedented circumstances of the COVID pandemic in which we find ourselves. 

Update: Effective immediately, all hockey has been suspended until further notice. We have received the OMHA's decision to cancel all minor hockey across the province. At this time we do not know what this will mean for the remainder of the season, and are awaiting further information. In the meantime, please stay safe and healthy.

Please email the office if you need assistance.

The CRHL Supports Rowan’s Law

Rowan Stringer loved rugby. A competitive and keen athlete, she was captain of her high school’s team. Tragically, in May 2013, 17-year old Rowan died as the result of head injuries she sustained while playing rugby. In the week before her last game, Rowan was hit twice while playing, likely sustaining a concussion after each blow. Her concussions went unreported, and she continued to play. Rowan suspected something wasn’t right—she texted a friend about her condition and used Google to search for information about concussions. When she was hit again in her final game, Rowan suffered what is known as Second Impact Syndrome—catastrophic swelling caused by a second injury to a brain still healing from previous trauma. Rowan collapsed on the field on May 8, 2013, and died four days later (Ophea.net).

Rowan's Law (Concussion Safety), 2018 makes it mandatory for sports organizations to: ensure that athletes under 26 years of age, parents of athletes under 18, coaches, team trainers and officials confirm every year that they have reviewed Ontario's Concussion Awareness Resources. (https://www.ontario.ca/page/rowans-law-concussion-safety

The CRHL is in full support of the Rowan’s Law and its intent to improve concussion awareness. As mandated in the new law, the CRHL now requires all players, parents/guardians, and team officials to take the following two steps:

1. Review the Ontario government's concussion awareness resources on an annual basis.
2. Sign the Ontario Hockey Federation’s (OHF) Rowan's Law Acknowledgement form. By signing this form, players, parents & team officials confirm they have:

a) Reviewed the concussion awareness resources;

b) Commit to the OHF Concussion Code of Conduct, which includes helping to prevent concussions, taking concussions seriously, and respecting the OHF removal and return to play protocol.

The CRHL has set the following deadlines:.

• All CRHL players, parents and officials must complete the review of information & acknowledgement prior to their first scheduled ice time this fall (2019/20 season)

Please be aware that the OMHA has now stated that all players new to the association must have birth certificates attached to their hockey profiles.

Coaches will be asking parents to submit birth certificates to the office to add to player profiles. The CRHL will not keep a copy of these once the documents are added to the player profiles.

Keep up to date on CRHL News, Events and schedules on our new Facebook and Twitter Pages!

Keep current with your team's schedule, scores, and standings.

The OMHA requires that at least one parent or guardian for each player registered in the OMHA, and therefore the CRHL, must complete the online Respect in Sport - Parent Education Program as a condition of their child’s participation.

This course must be taken BEFORE you can register your child for play.

Once the course is taken, the certificate number obtained is to be used for player registrations in this and subsequent years.
