Team Membership

ii) Team Membership

The league is focused in south central Ontario, spanning from Peterborough to Guelph to St. Catharines, including Toronto (150 km radius from Toronto). We welcome any team that shares our ideals and is based in this vicinity. A team can apply to become a member or simply just enjoy playing single exhibition games at a time. Here are the steps to go through to play…

Step 1: Read through the Team Member Agreement form and submit.

Step 2: Send payment for the number of exhibition games you would like to book. Single exhibition games cost $306 (HST included). We must receive payment before we can schedule. Payment details are here.

Step 3: After we have received payment, contact us to schedule an exhibition game against one of our member teams or other teams participating in our scheduling.

Step 4: After the first game is scheduled, the team must log into the league website (GTHLA.ca) and post their roster. They also must have each member of their roster fill out the GTHLA Individual Member Agreement form here.

Step 5: After a team has completed 8 single exhibition games without any incidents, including a maximum of 32 minutes in team penalties over their last 8 games, they are invited to apply to join the league. This invitation will be dependant on ice availability to the league.

1. The team must have a representative at all General league meetings that take place while the team is applying.

2. Applying teams are encouraged to help out with any volunteer work that is needed to run the league.

Step 6: After a team has successfully completed their application to join they are invited to become a member of the league.
