Cambridge, Kitchener & Waterloo
Minor Hockey Associations announce the formation of the Tri Cities Hockey League (TCHL)!
The
Spirit of Hockey Unifying Three Cities!
While the 2022-23 season’s whistles and skates are retired for the summer, the Cambridge, Kitchener, and Waterloo Minor Hockey Association Board Members have been busy at
work creating the
Tri Cities Hockey League (TCHL).
The Tri Cities Hockey League (TCHL) was born of a shared vision to create a hockey league that not only showcases remarkable skill and competition between the three Cities, but also fosters unity and regional pride. This collaborative effort aims to strengthen the bond between our neighboring centres, transcend boundaries, and create a sense of community that extends beyond the ice rink.
This
collaboration marks a remarkable moment in the hockey history of our Region –
bringing together the collective strength of 3 Associations to form a fun,
competitive experience for all House League players.
Participants will
experience some travel, as their representative counterparts do; however, it
will be limited between Cambridge, Kitchener, and Waterloo. Practices, where
applicable, will continue to be scheduled at the respective home rinks and families
will recognize game days and times similar to past seasons.
"Congratulations
to the Cambridge, Kitchener and Waterloo MHA’s for their successful collaboration
in creating the new Tri Cities Hockey League," said Larry Moreland, ALLIANCE Hockey President. "This is a tremendous team
effort that showcases dedication and hard work at the administrative
level. Recreational Hockey is the keystone for ALLIANCE Hockey member
associations and efforts to improve the recreational hockey player’s
experiences are of utmost importance. ALLIANCE Hockey is thrilled about
what the future holds for this new league and looks forward to supporting its growth."
If
you are already a House League player, we look forward to seeing you in the new
format.
If you have stepped away from house league hockey, we welcome you back
to share in this great new opportunity.
If you are new to hockey, there is
still a place for you on one of these exciting teams.
By joining together, all three
associations will have enough capacity to tier each division into smaller
groupings part way through the season. These groupings will allow teams to play
games against opponents closer to their own skill level, so everyone has a best-in-class
experience.
Together, let’s embark on a journey that will create lasting
memories for all involved!
