💜 A Heartfelt Thank You to Duford Digital 💜

At North Okanagan Minor Hockey Association, we are incredibly fortunate to have community partners who believe in what we do and invest their time and talents to help our association thrive.

Today, we want to extend our sincerest appreciation to Duford Digital and the amazing Mary Jane Duford for their outstanding sponsorship and unwavering support of NOMHA.

Our website is so much more than just a place to find information. It's where families register, volunteers stay connected, coaches access resources, players celebrate achievements, sponsors receive recognition, and our entire hockey community comes together. Thanks to Mary Jane's expertise, dedication, and ongoing support, NOMHA has a professional, reliable, and user-friendly website that truly represents who we are. Duford Digital specializes in building, hosting, maintaining, and optimizing websites for organizations and businesses, and that commitment is reflected in everything they've done for us.

Your generosity extends far beyond a sponsorship. You have helped strengthen the way we communicate with over a thousand players, families, volunteers, coaches, officials, and community members. Your continued support allows us to focus on what matters most—creating the best possible experience for every child who puts on a NOMHA jersey.

Mary Jane, thank you for your professionalism, your creativity, your countless hours of support behind the scenes, and your belief in community sport. Your partnership has made a lasting impact on our association, and we are truly grateful to have you as part of the NOMHA family.

❤️🏒 THANK YOU, ARMSTRONG REGIONAL COOPERATIVE! 🏒❤️

From everyone at North Okanagan Minor Hockey Association, we want to extend our deepest gratitude to Armstrong Regional Cooperative for stepping up as the Official U9 Division Jersey Title Sponsor for the upcoming season.

Community partnerships like this go far beyond a logo on a jersey. They help create opportunities for young athletes to learn, grow, build confidence, develop friendships, and fall in love with the game of hockey.

Every time our U9 players pull on their jerseys, they'll be reminded that their community believes in them. That kind of support leaves a lasting impact—not only on the ice, but in the lives of our players and their families.

Your commitment to investing in local youth hockey helps strengthen our association and ensures that our youngest players can experience the teamwork, sportsmanship, and lifelong memories that make minor hockey so special.

On behalf of our players, coaches, volunteers, families, and the entire NOMHA community...

Thank you, Armstrong Regional Cooperative, for believing in our kids and helping grow the future of hockey in the North Okanagan. We are incredibly proud to have you as part of the NOMHA family. ❤️

🇨🇦 Happy Canada Day from North Okanagan Minor Hockey Association! 🏒❤️

Today, we celebrate the country we are proud to call home and the incredible communities that make minor hockey so special.

From early morning practices to championship moments, from volunteers who give their time to families who fill the stands, hockey brings us together in ways that go far beyond the game. It builds friendships, teaches resilience, and creates memories that last a lifetime.

As we celebrate Canada Day, we want to thank every player, coach, official, volunteer, sponsor, and family who makes the NOMHA community such an amazing place to belong.

Whether you're spending today at the lake, around the barbecue, watching fireworks, or enjoying time with loved ones, we hope your day is filled with pride, laughter, and unforgettable memories.

🍁 From our hockey family to yours, Happy Canada Day! Wishing everyone a safe, joyful, and memorable celebration.

🚨 UPPER NORTH ZONE PROGRAM UPDATE | 2027/27 SEASON 🏒💜

The future of Upper North Zone hockey continues to evolve!

chrome-extensio://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://nomha.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Upper-North-Zone-Info-Package.pdf

After listening to valuable feedback from players, families, coaches, and volunteers, the Upper North Zone Committee has introduced an updated tryout process designed to create a smoother, more efficient experience for everyone.

Here's what families can expect this season:

🏒 Streamlined tryout process
📅 Earlier player reassignments
✅ Every player receives a minimum of 3 evaluated ice times
🤝 Better alignment with the Lower North Zone program
📈 More time for exhibition games and team preparation
🏠 Recreation players will transition back to their home association earlier, allowing them to get on the ice sooner.

Registration for Upper North Zone tryouts reserves your player's place for the upcoming season, and if your player is ultimately reassigned to Recreation, your original Upper North Zone registration date becomes your Recreation registration date for waitlist purposes.

📣 Coaching, Interim Head Coach, and Evaluator opportunities are also available for those looking to get involved and help shape the future of our athletes.

This pilot program continues to grow through collaboration, transparency, and feedback from our hockey community. We encourage all families considering Upper North Zone to review the complete information package before registering.

💜🖤 One Zone. Stronger Together. More Opportunities.

Stay tuned to our social media channels for additional updates, registration information, important dates, and tryout schedules as they become available.
