We are pleased to announce that the Ontario Hockey Federation (OHF) and the Town of Newmarket (TON) have confirmed our return to hockey on January 31st, 2022! Here are some key considerations for our reopening:
1. Capacity is limited to 50% - while this won't affect most of our games or practices please only have family that need to attend come to the rink.
2. Our dressing rooms will continue to support one team per room, but please consider:
- Masks must be worn while preparing to play
- Dress to play at home as much as possible to limit time in the room

RESTRICTIONS BEING EASED BEGINNING JANUARY 31st.
The Government of Ontario announced on January 20th the details of steps to cautiously and gradually ease public health measures, starting on January 31, 2022.
Among the restrictions that will be eased include areas that impact indoor recreational facilities. The capacity limits would be brought back to 50%, which is similar to where we were prior to the current shutdown and early September. The Ontario Minor Hockey Association is currently awaiting further details on how this will affect programming over the coming weeks. As always, we will share any new information when it becomes available.

During the month of
December the U9AA and the U10AA Renegades teams held a food drive challenge in
support of the Newmarket Food Pantry.
What started out as a
friendly competition between two hockey teams to see who could collect the most
food for our neighbours in need quickly turned into one giant collaboration.
The idea was to host a food drive, understand
community needs, and learn about leadership and transferable skills that will
last a lifetime. Message received…....
When preparation, teamwork, communication, joy, and heart & hustle finally met – the result was over 10,000 pounds of food
donated to the Newmarket Food Pantry!!!
