London Minor Ball Hockey Association

here was not a program in place for youth that offered this sport already, the group wanted to make sure that its first season made a true impression of the game of ball hockey to all of its participants and parents. This included proper marketing and advertising campaigns, a website with online standings and statistics, using certified officials, customized jerseys/shirts, a year end banquet with individual and team awards, and most importantly reaching into the community for volunteer coaches and local sponsorship. It was truly believed that if these things could be accomplished, the LMBHA could really help grow the sport and offer this great game to so many within the London area. The first season came and went and although there were a few minor issues, the LMBHA believes that it was a success. Not only did the LMBHA receive great feedback from its participants and their parents, the LMBHA was awarded with hosting the 2010 OBHA Youth Provincial Championships. This has to be recognized as a great accomplishment considering it was London’s first year with an organized youth league. That being said, as happy as the LMBHA was to hear this, it could not have happened without all of our participants, parents/guardians, coaches/assistants, referees/timekeepers and local sponsors. It is our goal to continue to improve the league every year and grow it into something special. Looking at various leagues in the Province of Ontario, there is no reason why the LMBHA can not reach 1000 participants in the very near future. As we have said in the past, we are 100% dedicated to making this happen and continue to ask for your support in this. That simply means, continue to have fun and learn this great game. Tell your friends and family members and don’t be afraid to tell us if you have an idea, question or concern. We stand by our tagline: Ball Hockey, A Game For Everyone

Please remember that. As this league grows, so will its participants and the skill level that comes with it. We all can put London on the map as a Ball Hockey power house. The LMBHA is excited for the year ahead and wishes everyone good luck! Play Safe and Play Fair. Thank you
