President’s message We have just finished a beautiful summer where we had record heat and very little rain. As we approach winter, the weather will turn cold, the leaves will fall and, with any luck, the puddles will freeze — and, as the puddles freeze, our passions heat up.

Canada has just re-established itself as the pinnacle of the hockey world by winning the World Cup in impressive fashion. That success all starts in communities like ours in our rinks, on frozen ponds, and deep in our united spirit. We brave the cold and share our love of hockey. We are so happy to have you all participating with us this year and hope that you have a great experience.

As fall settles around us, we are aware that Canada’s fifth season has truly begun — hockey season! This year, prepare to enjoy your experience.

Remember that together we build this hockey family into a great community and together our cooperative respect and passion will keep it hockey safe for all of the kids playing. We wish all our hockey players the best of luck and ask that you compete with sportsmanship, pride and to the best of your ability. By playing this game you prove yourself to be the best kind of people — hockey people!

As most of you in Kitchener are aware, the Region is currently building an LRT and, in doing so, we are experiencing

traffic congestion around the rinks. We ask that you stay familiar with the road closures and that you give yourself some extra time to arrive at the rink. You can track City of Kitchener road closures at http://app.kitchener.ca/road_closure/ es_road_closure.asp By being a part of a team and cooperating, we teach our children how to succeed. We use hockey as a tool where, in a safe environment, they can fail and try again. On the rink these lessons come to life just like in a dream; our children race down the ice with the puck looking to score only to see a teammate has the open wing and the empty net. A pass certainly means we all win and a single shot could win the game and bring great personal glory.

Our children learn by making these choices with the help of great people to guide them through it. As parents, we help them get over the disappointment; as coaches we help them keep working; and as fans, we cheer and let them know they are appreciated.

Have a great hockey season!

Yours in hockey, Tom Graham Kitchener Oktoberfest Tournament Chairperson and President Kitchener Minor Hockey Assosication

The Minor Atom MD Blue team Submitted by Coach Paul Radstake The Minor Atom MD Blue Team got a nice surprise at its first practice of the year at the Auditorium. Their OHL Rangers heroes gave the boys an impromptu tour of the dressing room and hammed it up with them prior to their own practice.

The boys challenged the senior Rangers to a game but they respectfully declined — maybe they were scared!

Jr Minor Peewee AAA September in review It was a very busy September for the Minor Peewee AAA Rangers as they laid the foundation for the season ahead. The month featured plenty of training both on and off the ice, teambuilding, the renewal of acquaintances with a local rival, and a good old-fashioned shootout.

The month kicked-off with the Marlies Friendship Tournament in Toronto.

The Rangers drew into a division with the Toronto Titans, Buffalo Jr. Sabres, Markham Waxers and Halton Hurricanes.

An early morning loss on Friday to a very strong Titans team was quickly followed up by a well-earned victory over some international competition from Buffalo.

On Saturday, the Rangers tied Markham before falling to Halton in their finale. It was a 1-2-1 finish in their first tournament and a return home for further preparations for the upcoming regular season.

Those preparations included plenty of practices in the month of September in addition to dedicated power-skating sessions. The Rangers also enjoyed a few ice times with the instructors from

Ref N’ Rules

to exchange quality-scoring chances throughout the contest but, late in the second period, Kitchener net-minder Devin Ingalls foiled a Chiefs penalty shot.

This turned the momentum back in favour of the Rangers who continued to press. A Kitchener goal in the final moments of the game earned them a 6- 6 draw in a very entertaining game.

With September in the books, it’s back to work for this team with plenty of home games on the schedule for October. As a special promotion, all spectators wearing Kitchener team colours will earn free admission to all home games throughout the season. So, why not catch this hardworking group in action at a Kitchener arena near you?

You’re welcome to an entire seat, but you’ll only need the edge!

Progressive Hockey Development as well as the kick-off of their off-ice dryland training led by Coach Taylor. The Rangers also participated in a team-building day full of challenges and fun at ALTITUDE (McMaster University) in Hamilton. It was certainly a busy training month prior to their early regular season games!

Over the last two weeks of the month, these Kitchener kids played their initial three games of the new season. A victory over their off-ice friends and on-ice rivals from Waterloo was sandwiched by draws against Brantford and Elgin-Middlesex.

The Elgin game was a good oldfashioned shoot-out that was exciting right from the opening draw. The Rangers jumped out to a 1-0 lead on an early marker just 22 seconds into the game.

After three consecutive shifts with the ice tilted toward the Chief’s net, the Elgin coach used his time-out just 2:03 into the game. The Chiefs righted the ship and pushed back. After plenty of end-to-end action, the Chiefs led 5-3 after just 12+ minutes of play. The teams continued

Welcome back to another season of fun on frozen water; your friends in black and white are looking forward to it, just as you are! To help make it a safe and fair experience for all participants, read on.

I’m sharing what’s new inside your Hockey Canada Rule Book and offering up a few tips to keep you on the ice and, hopefully, in the winners circle.

1. In all PW (and younger) hockey, the goaltender must wear full goalie protective equipment, including all pads and skates.

2. Any player that loses his/her helmet or facemask must properly replace the equipment or retire to the bench immediately. If your throat protector comes off, you should replace it or come off the ice. If you are unaware the protector is off, you will likely receive a warning rather than a penalty.

3. If a goal is scored while a teammate is situated within the goal crease, the goal may now be allowed if the teammate

that this will reduce time-consuming faceoffs and open the offensive aspects of the game.

Here are a few reminders that bear repeating: 1. CSA stickers must not be removed from helmets to avoid an infraction under the protective equipment rule.

2. While mouthguards are not compulsory in Alliance Hockey, they are recommended. If you do wear a mouthguard, it must be worn properly, not protruding from your mouth or face mask.

3. Body checking is not permitted in House League or Rep Hockey younger than Minor Bantam. New this year: no body checking in Minor Bantam MD. So, that should help you better understand what is new and refresh your memory for what you may have forgotten.

Now, you just need to lace em up, have some fun, and keep it safe and fair. Take it from me —it’s more fun on the ice than in the cooler!

has not influenced the goal by touching the goalie or deflecting the puck.

4. For a slew foot committed while standing still, the new penalty assessed is 2+2 and a game misconduct. If the offender is in motion or an injury results, the offence is now a match penalty.

5. During a faceoff, centres must place the blade of the stick squarely on the ice, including the toe, and outside the faceoff dot in the white ice.

6. If a goal is scored while the net is tipped up from the back, the goal may now be allowed if the moorings are still in place.

This season, Hockey Canada has implemented a pilot project for icings in MB A/AA only. For this, the centre line is removed for icing and is replaced by the blue line. So, a puck shot from the neutral zone outside your defending blue line is no longer icing in this division. This does not apply to tournament play. It is hoped

Developing our young hockey talent Following in the footsteps of the great work done over the last number of years by outgoing Director of Development Dave Carr is no easy task. Dave did a terrific job and, as the new KMHA Director of Development, I’m looking to build on the foundation already set in place. This year we’re looking to transition some new ideas while maintaining the great programs already in place.

I’ll be working with the Boys Rep coaches from MD to AAA. Jamie Dinsmore will be working with the Girls Rep and Local League coaches. Corey Dunbar will be working with the Boys House League and House League Select coaches. That’s a lot of coaches to work with throughout the season while trying to run our own teams and maintain a family life away from the rink as well. However, when you deal with a great group of volunteers, it doesn’t seem like work at all.

What’s in store for the upcoming season?

On the girls’ side, the players will continue to work with Laura McIntosh who provides tremendous energy and enthusiasm to the girls’ practices. We’ll also be continuing on with skill sessions for the girls to assist in the skill development of players at all levels.

For both boys and girls, the power skating and goalie sessions will continue.

While the game has changed at all levels to more of a skill game, one thing that hasn’t changed is the need for strong skating skills. The power skating program provides that necessary development for our younger players.

On the boys’ side, we’re introducing four skill-session opportunities during winter school break and professional development days (November 18, January 4, January 6 and January 27) for the benefit of HL-AA players. Registration for these sessions is limited so keep an eye on the KMHA website for more information.

Rep coaches have been asked to utilize video sessions with their team throughout the year. Video review is a different tool that will enhance the development of players and coaches. What player, at any age, doesn’t like to see himself/herself on video?

At all levels, parents may see different practices than what they are used to seeing. As the game has changed and evolved, so must we as an association and coaches. For this reason, parents may notice more station, small area and half-ice practices. These types of practices have been proven to enhance skill levels dramatically, especially with younger

players. They increase the amount of time players touch the puck, offer more shooting opportunities and build of selfconfidence with body contact and puck handling skills.

The KMHA IP program continues down the tremendous path it has pioneered over the years. Dave Sutherland, Bill Rogers and all of the volunteers involved continue to provide the foundation for numerous Jr. Rangers, Lady Rangers and coaches within KMHA. The only organization that provides something for everyone under one roof is KMHA. This makes our organization truly unique and we should be extremely proud of the fact that we provide the opportunity for everyone, from all walks of life, to enjoy the great game of hockey. On any given day throughout the hockey season, you’ll see the smiling faces of players coming through the IP program, Rookie Rangers, the Jr and Lady Rangers program, our Girls Local League, Boys House League, 4-on-4 and, of course, the Ice Pirates. These are programs that we should embrace and be proud of. No other association offers what KMHA offers.

While the results won’t happen overnight, we’re confident that, over time, we will see improvement and engagement of all players at all levels!

Lady Rangers Intermediate A team has goals

Submitted by Jon Fleming, Head Coach of the Intermediate A team This year’s edition of the Kitchener Lady Rangers Intermediate A team sees the majority of last year’s players returning for another season. Returning are: Ashley Forler, Sydney McDonald, Alex Ladd, Taylor Dobie, Katie Simons, Meghan MacKay, Christy Fleming, Paige Riley, Megan Yake, Brittney Crawford, Sara Metzger, Kristen Dahmann, Amy Thompson and Abbie Gray. Players joining the squad this year are Jenni Newcombe from the KW Lady Rangers, Hunter Lee from Kitchener MAA, and 2013/14 Midget A standouts, Nicole Bingeman and Sara Martin. We’re very glad Nikky and Sara decided to come out of retirement to join the team.

The strong team chemistry and work ethic that was evident last season has

been quickly re-established and has seen the ladies play hard through the short exhibition season. Play started off against Brampton with a 2-2 tie in a game that we dominated for most part until Brampton scored in the last minute with their goalie pulled to tie it up. We lost a close one (2-1) in the back half of the home-and-home a week later. Next was Guelph and we battled them to a hard fought 3-3 tie and then, with a full squad, dominated Cambridge 5-1.

Our last exhibition game was against Saugeen Maitland Lightning. We were up against a very good Saugeen team with a full roster and, with a short bench of only nine skaters, we were able to hold them to a 1- 0 lead for most of the game while generating some good scoring chances of our own. The

girls fought hard but Saugeen sustained the pressure and, at about the 10-minute mark of the third period, added two quick goals to take the game 3-0. Although it was a tough loss, had it not been for the strong goaltending and the outstanding work ethic of all the players, the result could have been much worse. The girls gave it their all as has always been the hallmark of this team.

This season sees the team confirmed in four tournaments and the objective of competing for the League and Provincial Championships. The team has the skill and determination to achieve these goals and, with the support of the coaching staff, Ted Martin, Mike Simons, and trainer Momma Darlene Dobie, we know this will be a memorable season.

The Lady Rangers Midget AA team has plans Written by Holly Chapman The Kitchener Lady Rangers Midget AA team, led by the strong coaching staff, (Head Coach Jeff Sittler and assistants Greg Moses, Dave Harrison and Erin Burns), are preparing for a strong, productive hockey season. Our dedicated coaching staff has an informative, fun-packed season planned for the team.

We have been invited and accepted into five tournaments: • • • • •

September: Stoney Creek Midget MAA Showcase  October: USA-Canada Cup – Detroit November: Bauer World Invite – Detroit December: Kitchener USA-Canada Cup – Waterloo  January: Ottawa Senators World Showcase

The season started out this summer with a weekend teambuilding campout in July at the farm of fellow team member Devin Kay. The girls participated in various teambuilding activities developed so the new and returning players could get to

know more about each other and how to work together for the team to achieve a successful hockey season.

They discussed what their team mottos should be for the year, how to put these mottos into action and how to achieve unity and success in the upcoming season.

The motto’s they will be working on developing this season are: • • •

challenge to all Kitchener hockey teams to participate in the Kitchener Kids for Cancer 5/10 Kilometre walk/run and the Kitchener Lady Rangers accepted that challenge. The girls had 100 percent participation from the team and the coaching staff and came out in full force. The run raised over $50,000 for the Pediatric Oncology Group of Ontario.

The Kitchener Lady Rangers Midget AA team had three players in the top 13 fundraisers and the team was second overall in the team fundraising category.

It is turning out to be a full schedule so the girls will have ample opportunity to develop their skills and deepen their friendships throughout the year. We look forward to great success in the 2016/17 hockey season.

You’ve only got three choices in life: give up, give in or give it all you got.  Never let success get to your head; never let failure get to your heart.  On a team, it’s not the strength of the Individual players, but the strength of the unit and how they all function together.

Together Everyone Achieves More.

Don’t expect anything unless you’ve given everything.

The Major Atom AA/A Jr. Rangers

On the weekend of September 9-11, the 2016/17 Major Atom A/AA Kitchener Jr. Rangers participated in their first tournament of the season, the inaugural

Kitchener Early Bird Tournament.

The boys played three exciting, roundrobin games against the Guelph AA Gryphons, the Cambridge A/AA Hawks, and the AA Windsor Jr. Spitfires. After all the dust had settled, they were on their way to the championship game!

Playing against the Cambridge Hawks for the second time, the team put forth an incredible effort for three full periods and was rewarded with a 3- 0 victory!

We, the coaches, could not be more proud of our boys or the way they

Submitted by coaches Tim, Ian, Gary and Milan

competed each and every shift of every game, for the extremely high level of play that they displayed, and for the class with which they conducted themselves throughout the entire weekend.

Thank you too, to the parents, family members, and friends who came out with plenty of positive energy and enthusiasm, and supported the team over the weekend.

Way to go Jr. Rangers! What a fantastic way to start the season — Kitchener Early Bird Tournament Champions!

Drop the puck for the Peewee B girls Summer is over, the kids are settled back in school, the leaves are turning colour and the hockey season is now in full swing.

Our Peewee B Kitchener Lady Rangers put in a lot of hard work during September in order to hit the ground

running for the start of the 2016/17 season.

After participating in some teambuilding events, competing in an early bird tournament, undergoing plenty of practices and playing numerous exhibition games, the girls are more

than ready. These players have already become a very tight knit group and have us very excited to see what the can achieve together.

Now it’s time to drop the puck and let’s go Lady Rangers!

Kitchener Lady Rangers — Senior A Tryouts have finally been completed for the Kitchener Lady Ranger Senior A hockey team. The Senior division of OWHA hockey allows ladies over the age of 21 to continue to play hockey. While ladies recreational leagues are getting more popular, there simply is not enough hockey available for ladies to play, as there is for men. Thus the Senior division in Ontario. The popularity of the Senior division is increasing as the ladies still maintain the passion for the game of hockey that they had when they were girls playing in their various associations. The number of ladies that attended the tryouts

exceeded the coach’s expectations which made the release process a difficult time for Head Coach, Gord Aitcheson.

The Senior A team does not play in the Lower Lakes Female Hockey League like all of the other Lady Ranger teams do.

This team plays in the Golden Horseshoe Womens Hockey League. This league consists mostly of Senior A and AA teams so the competition will be good for the ladies. The loop for this team will have them playing against: Brantford, Oakville, Hamilton, London, Stoney Creek, St. Catharines and McMaster University.

The final roster consists of: Kandace Charbonneau, Amanda Chiarello, Brittney Cosmo, Alessa Dalcourt, Ally Galloway, Janna Harbin, Emily Koehler Paula LaGamba, Meleda MacDougall, Kaitlyn McDonell , Melanie Oberholzer, Amanda Parkins, Brittany Robins, Kate Sinclair, Cathy Souto, Michele Strudwick, Alanah Walls, Sarah Zister Gord Aitcheson – Head Coach Pat Zister – Assistant Coach

Good luck ladies!

Kitchener Lady Rangers Peewee A team loves the game With September and our pre-season games in the books and regular games now underway, I want to take this opportunity to reflect and congratulate the Lady Rangers Peewee A team on a fantastic and busy pre-season. We played nine exhibition and four tournament games, accomplishing a record of five wins, four losses and four ties. During that span, the team scored 23 goals with

contributions from all lines.

The coaching staff can already see the bonding and team chemistry both on and off the ice. The girls put their experience to good use in their first league game as shown by their 1-0 win over the Etobicoke Dolphins. With four shutouts already under their belts, the goalies have become more and more confident in their abilities.

Well done, Peewee A! The coaching staff

expects the girls to continue to play with the same intense passion and drive that they’ve displayed so far. Remember: to play the game is good, to win the game is better, but to love the game is best of all!

Go Lady Rangers, go!

Minor Midgets off to a quick start Every April, coaches face new challenges when it comes to selecting the players for their hockey club. The many discussions the coaches have as they try to identify players with the characteristics that make a family on and off the ice often lead to sleepless nights. Players that fit into “our family vs. their team” mentality is the recipe that the coaching staff was looking for when selecting players for the boys’ Minor Midget AAA hockey team.

As Bantams, the team didn’t have as much success as the coaches would have liked. They were looking to jump start the players in a year in which they put enough pressure on themselves — their draft year.

By making a number of changes, with an eye on identifying the character and work ethic within the group of players, you hope that the right mix is found. So far, so good for the Minor Midget AAA hockey club!

The coaching staff of this year’s team realized the work ethic and passion the players had right from day one. With some team building and a five-kilometre team run, the bond between the players and their willingness to go through the wall for each other became quickly evident. While they are 14 and 15-year-old boys that like to have fun and joke around when they hit the ice, they are all business in both games and practices.

The boys started their season with a 5-KM Run for Cancer in which the Midget AA Lady Rangers team joined them.

While the players left their coaches in the dust during the run, they stuck together and ran for a great cause. The run is just one of the many community events the KJR Minor Midget AAA program includes in its season in addition to playing hockey.

Submitted by Dean DeSilva, Head Coach

The Minor Midgets are off to a good start and find themselves battling in the top half of the standings early in the season. They’ve already exceeded last year’s league wins and, with eight new faces on the roster, the players are looking to turn heads and earn respect on the ice with their play.

There is a lot of hockey for these young men to play as they go through their journey one day at a time together — a necessary process for them to reach their goal!

KJR Minor Midget AAA roster: Griffin Murphy, Corson Marit, Tyler, Ballantyne, Jameson Mitchell, Brendan Bauer, Danny Heath, Cole Schwindt, Justin McCombs, David Mabey, Zach Russell, Eric Maltby, Trent Dicicco, Christopher Adlys, Braeden Trussler, Tyler Schwindt, Cole MacKay, Jacob Ertel

Amazing Race: Rangers edition The Kitchener Jr. Rangers Minor Peewee MD Red team held its first team-bonding event with the Amazing Race: Rangers Edition!

The boys met at Pioneer Tower Park dressed in Rangers-themed attire for a full Sunday of “amazing” competition.

They were divided into four teams with a parent/coach driving each team and set out for the events.

The first challenge at Pioneer Tower Park saw a boy on each team blindfolded and searching the field for hidden golf balls numbered 1 to 4. The blindfolded boy could not be touched, only spoken to by his teammates as he collected enough golf balls to fill a bucket. After filling their bucket, the teams received their first

Featuring Kitchener’s Minor Peewee MD Red team

envelope with clues to the next event.

Subsequent events included assembling a table at Ikea, balancing a tray of ping-pong balls through an obstacle course at Moose Winooski’s, memorizing and presenting a poem hidden in a hockey book at Chapters, pricing out a meal at the IMAX theatre, participating in a pinball game challenge and posing for “selfies” in Rangers jerseys inside Hockey Life. From there, the boys spent an hour bouncing around Sky Zone

before they needed to cool off and had a pool party with pizza and cake!

It was a great day filled with lots of fun and laughter as the players got to know one another. It was really enjoyable to be around such a great group of people and exciting to think about how many more special memories await!

teamprofiles The Lady Rangers Atom B team is ready

With the tryouts behind us, the Atom B team has set its sights on the 2016/17 season and the challenges that it will bring. The team is a relatively young team with only six seniors on its 17-person roster. For many of the girls, this is their first introduction to playing on a competitive travel team. The girls are up

to the challenge and are eager to learn and develop their skills in the coming year.

Trainer Julia Salvini and Manager Jennifer Bertelsen join coaches Rob Menko and Cameron Beaupre. The team has already played five exhibition games with one more on the horizon. The games have been close and the level of compete demonstrated by the girls bodes well for the upcoming season.

Between the pipes, we have April Z. and Lindsay S. who have been solid in pre-season play. The defence (Emma Y., Madison W., Melody S., Ariana B., Emma G. and Claire S.) has been solid and contributed offensively.

Up front, we have Kaitlyn A., Kristen B., Makayla S., Dani M., Erica T., Kyla M., Abbygail B., Laney A. and Emily W. They’re fast and have no problem going into the corners and battling for the puck.

The girls are over the top with excitement with respect to our upcoming tournament schedule that starts in Etobicoke at the Pink the Rink tournament.

We look forward to witnessing everyone’s development and growth this season.

Go Lady Rangers!

A good start for Lady Rangers Bantam B The 2016/17 season is upon us and the Bantam B team is off to a good start with a winning record of 2-0-1 in exhibition play with zero goals against.

Coaches Rob Menko, Bruce Johnson, and Dwayne Wismer, Trainer Dawn Dickson and Manager Tony Zmigrodzki are pleasantly surprised with the results seen to date. The level of compete and speed demonstrated by the team is welcoming and bodes well for the upcoming season.

The girls themselves have really bonded well together and you can see positive chemistry developing. It doesn’t hurt

that five of our players also played competitive baseball over the summer and another four share the same school.

You can feel the energy in the dressing room and on the ice!

The team is comprised of four senior players and 12 juniors. In goal, we have two seniors, (Hannah Z. and Mare P.), who have been lights out in preseason play. The defensive core, (Taylor K., Amanda H., Olivia F., Marlee W. and Nicole M.), has been rock solid while also contributing offensively. Up front, we have Sophia S., Samantha V., Cassidy D.,

Kayleigh C., Tanis H., Katelyn D., Leah W., Nicole J., and Mackenzie P. Their speed and toughness on the fore-check have created numerous scoring opportunities. Together, we are looking forward to a successful season both on and off the ice.

teamprofiles Great start for the Lady Rangers Novice B team The Lady Rangers Novice B season is off to a great start! The girls are very excited to be coached by several young women with Lady Ranger experience. Assistant Coach Lauren Coxon has returned from playing NCAA and OUAA hockey to her roots in Kitchener. Madison Mitchell finished her minor hockey career on last year’s Lady Rangers Midget AA team and is excited to begin the next phase in her minor hockey life as a coach! The team is also excited to have several young women from local Midget AA and PWHL teams helping with practices.

In the team’s first four games, the girls have responded exceptionally well to their coaching by winning all four games and only allowing a single goal against — three shutouts!

On September 24, the team celebrated with a pancake breakfast at Coach Chris’s house.

What a great start to what looks to be an exciting season!

Lady Rangers Atom A believe The enthusiastic Kitchener Lady Rangers Atom A team ploughed through a busy pre-season with two exhibition games in September: one against the Chiefs in Mississauga and the other at home versus the Stratford Aces. After two hard-fought battles, the Lady Rangers found themselves short by a goal in both games. However, not all was lost as the coaching staff and parents got a glimpse of what this passionate squad can achieve.

Submitted by Chad Saunders

To round off the pre-season, the energetic Atom A Lady Rangers and their coaches spent an afternoon strengthening their communication and becoming a cohesive force at Grand River Rocks. The team held races and spent time climbing the various rock walls. Teamwork, good communication and trust among the players were apparent and necessary to accomplish a blindfolded climb successfully. These ladies were impressive!

To end the month of September, the ladies were ready, willing and able to face their competition in the Markham Stouffville tournament. The team went through the weekend with two wins, zero ties and an unfortunate 1-0 loss to Cambridge that ended any chances for a medal.

These exceptional ladies have a motto that they have taken to heart. BIYT, each one of the Atom A Lady Rangers knows, anything can be achieved if you “Believe In Your Team”

The head-to-head result of the teams tied. (Used when one team has beaten all other teams involved in the tie breaker).

If still tied...

2. Most wins. (Used when one team has more wins than all other teams in the tie breaker) If still tied...

3. The higher ratio of “(goals for)/(goals for+ goals against)” in the preliminaryround games.

If still tied...

4. The team with the “least amount of goals against” in the preliminary-round games.

If still tied...

5. Team with the “most goals scored for” in the preliminary-round games.

If still tied...

6. Team with the “lowest number of penalty minutes” in the preliminaryround games.

If still tied...

7. A coin toss by the Tournament Chairperson.

officials (up to a maximum of five) will be permitted in the players’ bench area during game play.

Notice to teams Due to the large number of team entries, some tournament games have been scheduled at 7 a.m. and must begin on time. Preliminary-round games have also been scheduled up to, and including, 9 p.m. Again, with the number of teams, the tournament committee has tried to avoid preliminary-round match-ups from the same league, however in some divisions this is not possible and teams must expect to play a league opponent.

Overtime Format If tied after three periods of play, semi-final and championship games will consist of (1) one ten-minute stop-time period of 4 on 4 sudden victory overtime.

Teams may substitute players freely during the overtime period. If the game is not decided at the conclusion of the tenminute overtime period, a (3) three player NHL-style shootout will take place. The team that scores the most goals during the shootout will advance. If the teams are still tied at the conclusion of the first shootout round, a sudden-victory shootout will take place until one team has scored (1) one more goal than the other team. A player may not shoot again until all the players on each team, excluding goalies, have had an opportunity to shoot.

Local rules of the tournament 1. 5-goal differential mercy rule – During preliminary-round games where there is a five-goal differential at any point in the third period (e.g. a score of 6-1), the time clock will run straight time.

The game clock will remain in straight run time for the duration of the game unless the goal differential becomes less than five (e.g. a score of 6-2) when stop time would resume. During straight run time, the referees (at their sole discretion) may instruct the timekeeper to stop the clock for a player injury or other matter such as a penalty call. All minor penalties occurring during straight run time will be of 2-minute duration. The five-goal differential mercy rule does not apply to semi-final or final games.

Game Officials: All games will be officiated by registered Hockey Canada, OHF and Alliance Hockey officials. Referees shall judge all goals from the ice. All tournament games will be officiated by a two-person officiating crew.

Please note... Spectators are not permitted to enter the change areas or dressing rooms at any time. It is the duty of team managers to respect this rule at all times. There will be no time outs permitted in the preliminary round or semi-final games in this tournament.

Each team in the championship/final game will be permitted one time out of 30 seconds. No additional time-outs will be allowed should the championship/final game proceed to overtime.

Game times will commence with a three-minute warm-up, beginning when the Zamboni doors close. The timekeeper shall signal the end of the warm-up and commencement of first period of play by sounding the buzzer and re-setting the game clock.

A maximum of 19 players including up to two goalies in full uniform and team

2. Game start time – The game start time is listed in the tournament program and on the tournament website. The listed game start time may be moved ahead by up to 15 minutes upon prior notice by the tournament official present to the coach or manager of each team.
