OHF Survey re: Body Checking
Submitted By
EHMHA on Monday, May 10, 2021
The Ontario Hockey Federation, with the support of its minor hockey Members (ALLIANCE Hockey,
Greater Toronto Hockey League, Northern Ontario Hockey Association, Ontario Minor Hockey
Association) is requesting feedback from various stakeholders (parents/guardians, players, team officials,
on-ice officials, Association representative) with respect to a competitive stream of non-body checking
hockey.
For the purpose of this survey, competitive stream shall be loosely defined as a representative Category of hockey.
Conducting this survey is not to be misinterpreted as an assertion on behalf of the OHF to remove body checking in any Category where it is currently permitted.
Instead, the OHF merely wishes to determine public opinion pertaining to the notion of a competitive stream of non-body checking hockey. Responses to the survey are requested no later than June 15, 2021.
