Changes to 2009/10 Schedule Due to Olympics

There will be considerable disruption during the 2009-2010 season arising from arena closures, transportation issues, and events connected with the Winter Olympic Games (February 12-28, 2010) and Paralympic Games (March 12-21, 2010).

A prospective season plan has been developed by PCAHA. The draft schedule for next season is:

• Pre-season: September 1 – September 27
• Tiering: September 28 – October 25 (play through Thanksgiving weekend)
• Regular season: November 2 – December 20 and January 4-10
• Christmas tournaments: December 24 – January 3
• Playoffs: January 11 – February 7
• Exhibition only: February 8 – March 4
• Spring tournaments: March 6-14

• Provincials: March 7-12 (U16 winter games (Terrace) may affect Bantam provincials timing)

NSFIHA will not be in control of its destiny in relation to scheduling and everyone will have to be patient and flexible during this very unusual season. Further adjustments should be expected to occur as dictated by events, and there may be variations from league to league depending on the impact of arena closures, etc.

Please note that NSFIHA has ice booked starting September 1, 2009. This will more than likely be the first day for A evaluations. This is prior to the Labour Day weekend. Please make sure to book your late summer get-aways accordingly.*
