I hope everyone has stayed safe and sane throughout this unprecedented difficult time. We appreciate everyone’s patience as we all wait to see how COVID-19 forces change for the future. There have been a lot of rumours, assumptions and speculation put out there as to when hockey will resume and what measures will be in place. I can tell you this for a fact, no one knows. KMHA is planning for next year the same as we have every year. We are planning summer camps in August, tryouts in September and normal league operations. Should there be orders from the health authority or BC Hockey/Hockey Canada that require changes, we will adapt. We will be posting on our website when we open our registration.
