This is quite exciting, for those of us with kids stuck in the OMHA or Alliance zones that cannot move between towns to play where they like. It's also a great idea for those of us with kids who are suffering from Concussions after playing in the body contact style OMHA. I am hoping that this league is successful. Please comment and let me know if this is for real!!

Good Afternoon Parents and Players,
The Safe Rep Hockey League (SRHL) is pleased to announce not only the opening of its 2014/15 Tryout Registration, but also our expansion in the Halton Region.
The SRHL is a no body-contact league that offers Rep Level Hockey with No Address Boundaries.
In addition to our PEEWEE, BANTAM and MIDGET Divisions, we have added an ATOM age group for the 2014/15 season.
Tryouts will begin on May 31st and continue until June 22nd. All tryouts will take place at Wave Hockey facilities (Wave Twin Rinks and Wave Sports Centre)
The growth of the SRHL is being bolstered by the addition of THREE NEW TEAMS! The Halton Ravens will be joined by:
- Burloak Bears
- Milton Warriors
- Burlington Cougars
More teams means more spots available for the new season. 60 players positions and 8 goalie positions will be available in each Division.
2014 Tryouts, which guarantee 3 tryout skates, will be administered by our SRHL Coaches and Professional Staff.
To register for our 2014 SRHL Tryouts please click HERE
See our flyer (below) for more details, or contact us at director@saferephockeyleague.ca
We hope that you are able to participate in what will be our best SRHL season yet.

We played two years of this league, now named the Ontario Rep Hockey League (ORHL). We loved it. Great kids, good hockey, good coaches who focussed on development and fun. We played out of The Wave in Burlington but there are teams in Mississauga, London, Cambridge and other cities. OMHA parents try to run it down as just a glorified house league but it was definitely above my child's house league/ select program. With the increased ice time and consistent coaching (rather than having one house league coach and a different select team coach) my child definitely improved a lot. At times the organization piece is not perfect but even that improved a lot between years one and two, in our experience. I would recommend it unreservedly.
