OHF Player Movement Overview - Asked Questions
GLHA Season Guidelines for A and BB Programs
The Greater London Hockey Association (GLHA) is excited to outline the following key guidelines for the upcoming hockey season. These policies aim to maintain a competitive and local-focused environment while offering opportunities for players within our boundaries.
Boundary Guidelines for A and BB Programs:
GLHA will continue to uphold its current boundaries for all A and BB programs to ensure players are competing within their local arenas, making it more convenient for families. Our program will remain restricted to London players only, but we are excited to include players from Lambeth as a part of our boundary.
These boundaries also provide four distinct areas of the city where players can compete under the GLHA umbrella.
London Junior Mustangs (LJM):
The Mustangs remain exclusive to London-area players, and this policy will not change. The GLHA is recognizing Lambeth as part of our internal boundaries.
Players who were previously registered with LJM on a Non-Resident Player (NRP) status will be grandfathered in and allowed to participate this season without new restrictions.
Program Structure for A and BB:
A Program: For U10-U13 and U18 age groups, we will continue offering a city-wide program. For U14-U16, teams will be divided into Purple and White tiers based on their local boundary.
BB Program: Boundaries will remain in place for current members (West, East, North, Oakridge).
Commitment to Player Development:
GLHA is dedicated to offering affordable and exceptional hockey experiences to all players.
We focus on developing not only hockey skills but also the valuable life lessons learned through the sport.
Encouraging Participation from All Areas:
We encourage our GLHA families to stay with us for the upcoming season. This approach ensures that local players remain engaged while providing opportunities for players to participate, all while fostering player development and promoting a strong community
