IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: U8 & U9 MD SPRING EVALUATIONS & PREP SKATES
OMHA Announces Spring Evaluations for U8 & U9 MD

In a move that came as a surprise to many minor hockey associations, the OMHA recently announced that U8 MD and U9 MD evaluations will take place this spring. This change has led to a scramble as we work hard to finalize coaching selections, schedule evaluations, and prepare for the upcoming assessments.

While we finalize these details, we want to ensure our players have the opportunity to get on the ice ahead of evaluations. To support this, we are offering U8 & U9 MD Prep Skates to help players get back into game shape and build confidence before the evaluations begin.

U8 & U9 MD Prep-Skates – Register Early!

To help players prepare for the upcoming evaluations, Innisfil Minor Hockey is hosting a series of optional prep skates for our 2018 (U8) and 2017 (U9) players. These skates are not mandatory, but they are a great way to get some extra ice time before evaluations begin.

Spots are limited to 25 skaters per session – register early to secure your spot!

  • Cost: $20 per session
  • Location: Innisfil Recreation Complex (IRC)
  • Maximum Players per Session: 25

Players may attend as many or as few sessions as they choose (or none at all, these are optional)
