You heard it here first..
Once AAA teams are picked in the fall, the OHF will be announcing Open Borders in Ontario for 2025/26 season. All levels all age groups. Play where you want is coming.
No more residential transfers, no more waivers, no more releases. Its coming.
I am the OP on of this thread... Just to give context i have been right about everything I post ( I could provide a list if you like), i dont post lightly. Again you heard it here first. Open borders has been decided. Its coming at all levels U10 and above. They cannot open U9 due to some HC regulations with the pathway at least not yet, walk before you can run. I can also say full ice is coming as well but not until next season. Buckle up, there is one more change but not ready to announce it yet and will effect AAA in a good way IMO

FOR U9 next year, if the kids played already with your team for MD or Select they can be granfathered in back to their team. The association can also say no to this. it will take about 3 year for this rule to adapt for U7, U8 and U9... The idea will be to promote not driving 1.5 hours for 1 game for U9, U8 and U7 still....
