Welcome everyone !! We are glad to see all the experienced players back as well as seeing a lot of new faces, we look forward to a great season. We wanted to make note of a couple of points before we start the season: 1. We are here for some good fun and exercise and we all have things to do after each game, so please remember this… we are not getting paid to play, so…come out, play hard and enjoy; Any unsportsmanlike conduct WILL NOT be tolerated and the player(s) will be asked to leave the league WITHOUT a refund. 2. In order to make our league successful and fun, we reserve the right to balance out the teams within the 1st three weeks. We hope to have picked fairly even teams, but we may need to fine tune them to make the teams even, don’t take it personal, it is in the interest of fair play. 3. For the veterans of the game, please take the rookie players under your wing and guide them along the way so we can all enjoy the season. 4. The game is called by the refs. Once the gamesheet is signed, the goals, assists and points awarded will stand as signed by the refs. 5. You may add “subs” to your OBHA team roster by June 1st, 2017. You will be allowed a max of 5 subs per game. You can pick up subs in order to make a total of 10 players for the night, for example, if you have 6 players that show up, you may pick up 4 of your subs from the sub list. There is NO picking up subs from within the league from other teams. They MUST be from your sub list. Subs will be expected to pay $10.00 to play and they can play no more than 5 games in the season. The latest someone can come into the game is by the end of the first period. 6. In the finals, your team must NOT have a pick up goalie. A defaulted game will be called when a team has less than 6 players at the drop of the ball at the beginning of the 7 or 8pm game (5 minutes grace). 7. Remember ladies not to forget the required equipment: all face masks MUST cover the FULL face right down to your chin, you need proper HOCKEY gloves and approved hockey stick. Also, NO JEWELLERY rule is enforced in this league. All “hard plastic” equipment ie. Knee braces, Shin guards, or Knee pads MUST be covered…to protect the other players. 8. Please note …… everyone here has paid the exact same fee to play, so when you are on the floor remember that you are a team and that you all deserve the same playing time, this is a HOUSE LEAGUE, don’t forget to get off the floor and give others a chance. 9. If for any reason the arena time is cancelled, each team will receive a tie. Should a game have to be ended before the first half is completed for some unforeseen circumstance (leaky roof/no power/etc etc), the game will be given a tie. If however, the game has gone into the second half and the game is called by the ref, the outcome will be whatever the score is at the time that the game is called. 10. Please make sure you sign your insurance forms before the start of your first game to ensure coverage. 11. If you do not make 3 consecutive games without letting your team rep know, let it be known that your spot will be filled WITHOUT NOTICE and WITHOUT REFUND !! 12. If you cannot make your game, please email or call your team rep to let them know. In advance I’d like to thank Andrea Ireland for keeping the stats and website information up to date, any concerns speak to me and I’ll pass along the info. 13. As brought up in the past, if you wish to drink before your game, Don’t bother playing. Please wait until after your game (and make sure you have a designated driver) If the ref is notified that a player has been drinking, the player will be asked to leave the bench. 14. For further rules please use your Ontario Ballhockey Association Rule Book. 15. Just to note also, if there is a tie in the final standings of the regular season they will be settled as follows: Head to head record between the teams in regular season; Goals for and against between tied teams in games played together; Plus/minus goals in regular season. *******************************
